I'm not proud of it, but my #1 "Oh shit" git operation is to just delete my local repo, reclone, and reapply the changes. Works really well for me 95% of the time. The rest I ask dev ops guy to help.

This should be a built-in

  git unshit
Or

  git add --unshit -f ~HEAD^^
If you’re using git version <= 2.844.

Jujutsu has `jj undo`, but which undoes whatever was your last jj command, regardless of what it was. It makes much more confident to do an operation I'm uncertain of. And if I regret something many actions down the line, you have `jj op log` (a better reflog).

If you `jj undo` a second time, does it redo (undoing the undo), or does it back up another step?

It redos, there's discussion about if and how this should change: https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/issues/3700

For background, this is because the `undo` itself is an operation pushed onto the top of the stack. It is a little counterintuitive.
