`git reset --hard <remote>` isn't a correct command, the argument of `git reset` must be a tree-ish, which a remote name alone isn't. In some cases this command fails with ``` fatal: ambiguous argument 'origin': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' ``` Signed-off-by: Mosè Giordano <765740+giordano@users.noreply.github.com>

This is a GREAT catch! ... @MoralCode : I think this could be one small thing that fixes a few repos that appear stuck; Though my testing is showing mostly the large repos just take large time.
