Even reset hard wouldn't delete untracked files. This was a complete overreach by the GUI, performing a
clean
(and likely a forced one, as git's requireForce defaults to true).And they did rectify that eventually, giving a warning, and an option to simply reset. It's unfortunate this poor person had to be the trigger for that change.
