Hi, sometimes it would be nice to reset not only the current,
but any given branch head. What do you think?

git update-ref

or do  you mean with porcelain commands?

HTH,
Santi

Suppose I have 3 branches A, B, C, and A is checked out.
I would like to set B's head to point to C's with a command like:
git-reset --head B C

Currently I can achieve it by 2 commands:
git-checkout B
git-reset --hard C

I think you simply want:

   git branch -f B C
