Discussion on: Oops, I just pushed a git commit to the wrong branch. What now?

Agreed. That's why I said "personal" feature branch, before it's touched or reviewed by anybody else.

Then again, I don't mind a force push to prevent commits like "oops forgot semicolon". Commits like that are pollution and won't help anybody in the future trying to look back in history. I usually remove them when a pull request is ready to be merged.

Comments are temporary anyway and no replacement for documentation.

After all it's about knowing what your doing. I prefer communication/education over arbitrary rules in my team.
