Today I learned about an alternative syntax to force push git branches.

git push --force origin feature-a
git push -f origin feature-a
git push origin +feature-a

One hand the + saves some characters and somehow feels less scary to me, but on the other hand is force pushing only a single character typo away. That's scary!

Force pushing is dangerous. If you collaborate with others on a project, consider using the --force-with-lease flag instead.
