Question

Reset commit of remote branch

Branch A

git add modify files
git commit -m "ISSUE FIX A"
git push origin A

Found problems from ISSUE FIX A commit, so I want to reset this commit

git reset HEAD^
git commit -m "Reset commit HEADNUM"
git push origin A

then error message

 ! [rejected]        BRANCH A -> BRANCH A (non-fast-forward)

How to reset commit of the remote branch?

Answer 1

use git push --force origin A Because you are trying to edit the history.

you can amend your commit without using git reset by using git commit --amend to amend the last commit.

Answer 2

Just fix the issue on your local, save it and:

git add .
git commit --amend --no-edit
git push --force-with-lease

The commit and its hash will change keeping the same commit message. The --force-with-lease overwrites your remote branch with your local, unless someone else committed on it.
