Yes, it is possible to force “git pull” to overwrite local files by using the “–force” or “-f” option with the “git pull” command.

Here are the steps to force “git pull” to overwrite local files:

• First, ensure that you have committed all your changes and that there are no uncommitted changes in your local repository. This is important because “git pull” can overwrite your local changes.
• Open your terminal or command prompt and navigate to the local repository directory.
• Run the following command to force “git pull” to overwrite local files:

git fetch --all
git reset --hard origin/<branch-name>

Replace “<branch-name>” with the name of the remote branch you want to pull changes from.

The “git fetch –all” command fetches all changes from the remote repository, and the “git reset –hard” command resets your local repository to match the remote repository, overwriting any local changes.

• After running the command, all local files that were modified or added since the last commit will be overwritten with the version from the remote repository.

It is important to note that using “–force” or “-f” option can be dangerous and should be used with caution, as it can overwrite your local changes without any warnings or prompts. Therefore, it’s recommended to create a backup of your local repository before using this command.
