Great find, dealing with a diverged repo is one of those things that always feels messier than it should. The guide does a solid job walking through the steps. My biggest takeaway: don’t panic, pick a clean branch to reset from, and make sure you understand the merge vs rebase trade-offs before you hit “push —force”.
