How to pull force just one folder in dev tree?

If I am in my source code tree down deep in a directory at the command line, how do I pull from a repo and force overwrite all files locally (and also get files that I deleted locally, just in the folder I am in?)

I do not want to do this for the entire repo, just the directory that I am in and also on the branch I am in. I am not in the 'master' branch, but another branch.

so

 $git reset --hard HEAD

Would probably do my entire local repo and from 'master' (even if I am not on master)?

I want to git force pull from the branch I am on locally (tracked to a branch on a remote bare repo) and force overwrite of all files locally & also get the files I may have deleted locally from the file system (not files deleted through git).

How do I practice this to see what would happen (or revert) your solution if there are problems?
