> I didn't understand the part about removing the repository

He was just saying that it could all be "solved" by simply nuking the current repository and starting afresh from the current version of the code. They'd lose all history but they'd also have a clean slate and not have to deal with the errors of the past.



I see. Also known as the "version control is hard, let's go shopping" route.

Better not let it come to that. Especially if the plan is to repeat it when someone mess up next time.
