Remove all files from Git Remote

Question

I pushed my source to my remote git repository some time ago. Now i want to delete every file on the remote as i want to use the repository for a completely new project.

I tried to force push an empty folder:

 git push -f origin

But still when i clone it, the files are still there

git clone http://scm.mygitlocation/project/repo

possible yes, let me check this – user1767754 Aug 05 '15 at 06:27 — user1767754, Aug 05 '15 at 06:27

If you do a:

git rm -r *

And commit & push those changes. The files will be removed from the repository but the files will be available for the revisions.
