I'm trying to build out a feature on an app, so I started a branch. I'm a couple hours into building my feature and now I realize that I have a mess. I generated a model and a bunch of changes, all I want now is to go back to my last commit and start over with a different approach. How can I delete all my changes and simply go back to the git repo head and start over schema and all?

If I do that I still have schema changes sticking around – Bitwise Apr 07 '16 at 17:26

1Did you migrate your database? If so, first rollback all relevant migrations, _then_ git reset hard. – Sergio Tulentsev Apr 07 '16 at 17:27

The nominated duplicate covers the git part of this question, but does not cover anything additional that should be done for Rails (see @SergioTulentsev's comment) – Wayne Conrad Apr 07 '16 at 19:40

reset hard - Make sure you are permanently deleting all the changes:
git log #get your last commit id
git reset --hard commit_id

1@CameronBass you need to rollback the migrations you have made. `rake db:migrate:down VERSION=
