Your branch and 'origin/master' have diverged but overwrite server

Question

I just did this here and deleted some of my first commits.
After the last step I got this
Your branch and 'origin/master' have diverged, and have 27 and 32 different commits each, respectively (use 'git pull' to merge the remote branch into yours)

I now want to push this to github so that only the 27 commits I currently have local are shown on github.

Do I only need to make a normal push?

(Other questions ask how to solve this Problem with merging but I want to throw away whats on the Server and overwrite it with my local datas so the first commits doesnt Exits anymore)

what does `git status` give ? – abj1305 May 16 '19 at 09:08 — abj1305, May 16 '19 at 09:08
The same as the code-formated part I added in now. – sirzento May 16 '19 at 09:10 — sirzento, May 16 '19 at 09:10

If you want to completely override the remote commits you may use git push -f (force push).
