I have a Git repository that I want to remove all previous commits from.
Cause I tested to commit junk files, now I want to “start over” with the repository.
Is this possible?

Just delete the .git directory and ‘git init’ again to begin anew.
If you had done any configuration in the repo, you can always make a backup of the .git/config before removing the .git.
