Hi! AFAIK, "committing" in git is "kind of publishing your work" (others may pull it). I don't like publishing my mistakes ;-) Even if no-one pulls the commit, your "undo" refers to "committing a fix for the last committed mistake", right? Again, I don't really want to document/archive (i.e. commit) my mistake. Or did I miss something here? I know: Other's opinions are quite different on these issues.
