Git hard reset

Hard reset allows you to reset your local branch to the HEAD (your last local commit). This means it discards any uncommitted changes in your local branch.

Hard reset is useful in scenarios where you need to undo changes and start over. For example, you want to start a feature or task from scratch and discard all your uncommitted work.
