New Empty Branch - Git Commands

1. Switch to a new empty branch.

git switch --orphan <branch-name>

2. Remove all the files, mostly all in the .gitignore file will start to show here.

rm -rf *

💡 The rm -rf * command will delete all the files in your current working directory. If unsure, delete the files manually.

3. Add your changes to your new empty branch.
4. Lastly, push your changes

git push -u origin <branch-name>

Add better context. rm -rf * is a dangerous command, atleast add disclosures and warnings.
