How to remove/replace as a new the previous push on the gitlab.

What I tried is to

git reflog then

git reset d018881 then

git add .

git commit -m 'Added room sub-module link'

git push origin staging

I don't think "push" is the right term. Are you referring to commits? — Dai, Mar 05 '21 at 02:19

Technically speaking, if you want to undo the latest commit on a branch which you have published, and which someone else might already have pulled, you should use git revert rather than resetting:

# from staging
git revert 6e01a486
# now make your new commit and push
git add .
git commit -m 'Added room sub-module link'
git push origin staging

If you really did want to nuke the latest commit, then use a hard reset followed by a force push:

# from staging
git reset --hard HEAD~1
# now make your new commit and push
git add .
git commit -m 'Added room sub-module link'
git push --force origin staging
