So the history-rewriting steps are git-filter-branch --tree-filter 'rm -f testme.txt' HEAD git reset --hard rm -rf .git/refs/original/ vi .git/packed-refs # Use vi to remove the line referring to refs/original... git reflog expire --all --expire-unreachable=0 git gc --prune Seems like a wrapper is needed. :-) > Warning: all unreachable references will be removed!

I don't know how to determine whether this is safe or not (except that these were test repositories anyway, so I don't care what happens to them). Thanks!
