git - how to delete all commit history in github? - Stack Overflow

Deleting the .git folder may cause problems in your git repository. If you want to delete all your commit history but keep the code in its current state, it is very safe to do it as in the following:

Set URL:
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/gitgdm/siroccoweb.git

Checkout

git checkout --orphan latest_branch

Add all the files

git add -A

Commit the changes

git commit -am "commit message"

Delete the branch

git branch -D main

Rename the current branch to main

git branch -m main

Finally, force update your repository

git push -f origin main

PS: this will not keep your old commit history around
