      People inexperienced with git can get stuck after doing some funky checkout / rebase stuff. If you don’t know your way around git so well, I guess this is the obvious solution.

      I’ve been doing this yesterday. Not because Git broke, but since Intellij kept pulling invalid configs from the cache, and that was based on some kind of path identifier it seemed.

      Gradle!

      Fucking gradle. I do config stuff, rerun gradle error here, I fix the error rerun gradle: sth. Violation error.

      Ok intellij invalidate chaches and restart… Still same error.

      Fine I’ll do it again

      git add. 
      git commit -m "stuff"
      git push
      
      rm -rf repo
      git clone repo

        You can probably use something like

        git clean -xdf
        

        To get rid of all the artifacts not tracked by git, in this case it’s virtually the same as deleting the repo and re-cloning it.

        NOTE: Make sure everyhing is staged, otherwise that data is gone
