    Description

      Go to "Tools" -> "Git" -> "Local Repository" -> "Branches...". The dialog provides a lot of useful options to handle branches but I miss the possibility to reset a branch to the top of another branch.

      My use case is the following:

      • While (workingHours())
        1. Work on master, commit changes to master.
        2. Push master to Gerrit.
        3. Create a branch at the top of master.
        4. Reset master to origin/master.

      So in 3. I have to open the Branches dialog and in 4. I have to open the Reset dialog. The Branches dialog provides all it takes to reset the branch there, except for the button that triggers the call to git.
