Alright. I'll take this into account. Unfortunately, before you got to
me, I reworded the commits on my local and pushed them to the remote,
which resulted in a messy history with duplicate comments.
The project in question is a public project of mine, and I'm the only
person actively working on it, so I guess rewinding and rebuilding is
acceptable per my standards.
But at least my GitHub page has more green on it!
And I definitely will rebase -i and push -f next time I need to rewrite
some remote history.

It is up to each project if it is an acceptable practice to
rewind-and-rebuild a branch that has already been published, but
if the projects participants are OK with it, then "'rebase -i'
and 'push -f'" is how you would do it.
