Description misterm 2015-04-10 14:49:35 UTC 
One of the main use cases for reset hard is to be able to push --force after it.

Use case: a github repo R2 is a fork of repo R1. R1 moves forward and R2's latest commit needs to be discarded before merging R1. The workflow is to reset --hard R2 to the previous commit and push force it before merging R1. reset --hard works, push --force is not possible from the IDE.

Yes, this is really the same use case that I have. I can't push because NB says we have things to pull first. Now I have to do a push --force with console. Please add this missing feature.
Comment 2 Christian Lenz 2018-10-25 15:20:49 UTC 
I will close it, because it will handled now at the JIRA board: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1554. Please discuss it there for further information.
