Overwrite all local files that are not committed

I made some changes to a project and commits them.

I did git pull to update my local branch before pushing.

The git bash shows:

The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge:
<list of files>

The command git pull -f had the same effect. I dont what to do git reset --hard origin/<branch_name> because, to my knowledge that will "delete" my commits.

How do I overwrite all local files that are not committed and keep the commits to then be able to push them?

git-commit git

You could reset them branch to your current HEAD. That way you'll remove any local changes that aren't committed, but won't lose any commits:

$ git reset HEAD --hard
