Add a possibility to abandon several changes (for example when wrong branch was accidentally pushed)

Could you suggest how to approach this?  A button to abandon an entire branch?  Where would this button go?  Other approaches?

My first desire was to check this issues (using stars) and delete them all (like in e-mail web interfaces). Button could be at the top or in the bottom of list. Delete entire branch may be fine too, but I'm in doubt how to select branch - it's easier and less error-prone to select individual issues

Using stars might not be the best approach because the star
implies "BCC me on emails about this change".

If we added another checkbox icon just to the left of the
star and had a new concept of "Selected Changes" then
you can check off changes to make them "selected" and
apply a bulk action like abandon (or submit?) to the selection.

To pick a branch, we could support selection by query.  That
is the user enters the query "is:open project:foo topic:bar",
uses a new action to "select all results" and then applies the
bulk action to that selection.

This is also related to issue 51, working with multiple
changes at once.

Hi,
I see this has not been updated recently. I'm trying to abandon all changes from a specific "topic" at once. I'm not sure there is a syntax already for that.

My first idea was something like this:

git push origin :refs/for/master/topic-name

As it would be the exact opposite of what was done to create topic-name.

Thanks,
