> Regardless, what's so bad about deleting the repo and pulling from remote if you can't figure out why you hosed it? It's not like it costs you anything to do `rm ... && git clone ...`. And it's not like this happens daily either. Well, actually, a lot of people work in large repos, so this can be a pain. Which of course brings up another failing of the git UI: the difficulty of removing old history from the repo. Last I checked, you pretty much have to use a 3rd party tool for this.
