Rewrite history already pushed to remote

There are some git operations that cause changes which require pushing with the force flag to apply those changes to the remote repository.

• e.g. git operations that re-write public history (as apposed to re-writing local-only history)

note: pushing with the force flag requires special permission on that remote repository
