Override local changes with west update

See original GitHub issue

Hi, is it possible to override local changes when running west update?

For instance these when running west update;

=== updating trusted-firmware-m (modules/tee/tfm):
HEAD is now at c74be389 trusted-firmware-m: platform: lpcxpresso55s69: Update SDK
M       trusted-firmware-m/bl2/ext/mcuboot/CMakeLists.txt
M       trusted-firmware-m/bl2/ext/mcuboot/bl2_main.c
M       trusted-firmware-m/bl2/ext/mcuboot/keys.c
M       trusted-firmware-m/bl2/ext/mcuboot/scripts/assemble.py
M       trusted-firmware-m/bl2/ext/mcuboot/scripts/wrapper/wrapper.py
M       trusted-firmware-m/platform/ext/target/nordic_nrf/nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp/RTE_Device.h
=== updating mbedtls (modules/crypto/mbedtls):

Hi, no, west update has no features for throwing away local changes. You can run git reset --hard HEAD in modules/tee/tfm instead.

I have no plans to add those types of features myself, as I tend to work on west when I have a mandate to add a feature that’s blocking me in some way. But the project is open to contributions.
