I'd strongly suggest keeping the wix branches pure in the future, and do all of your work in feature branches.  Then, as long as you have the official repo's setup as remotes, it's an easy fetch and merge to get current changes back to your repo.  Once merged into the local develop branch, then you can either merge them back into your feature branch, or rebase your feature branch.

Subject: [wix-devs] wix3/wix4 forks

I would like to wipe out or otherwise reset the github forks that I have at wixtoolset github under PhillHgl.  Some time back I tried to submit pull requests to each but things got all messed up.  While I posted a long explanation then and also asked this question without answer, I don't know what to do except wipe it out and start from a clean slate.  Can you tell me how to wipe out those forks? (or if this is the wrong idea what should I do to start from a clean slate?  At the moment I cannot do any building of the wix source so I might as well eliminate the related noise up on github.  Does that make sense?)

Thanks for any suggestions or assistance.
Phill
