Overwrite untracked files in current branch from a remote branch

In a similar vein to git reset --hard feature/weavils you can just overwrite untracked working files (typically left over from branch experiments) which are part of the remote branch you're pulling like this:

git reset --hard origin/feature/weavils

Normally, if you tried git checkout feature/weavils you'd get warnings like untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge, so hit them with the --hard hammer instead.

This is an easy way to integrate a basic Instagram feed into a WordPress site.

Setup

First, register with Instagram's developer program, then register a client. Set the client ID they provide you in line 4.

Second, get your Instagram user ID by running this in your terminal:

curl -X GET https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/search\?q\=USERNAME\&client_id\=CLIENT_ID
