+Note for public interfaces that commit after every change:
+
+In the case that some spam or inappropriate comment makes its way
+through you interface, you can remove the offending commit XYZ with:
+ If the offending commit is the last commit:
+ bzr: bzr uncommit && bzr revert
+ git: git reset --hard HEAD^
+ other VCSs?
+ If the offending commit is not the last commit:
+ bzr: bzr rebase -r <XYZ+1>..-1 --onto before:XYZ .
+ (requires bzr-rebase plugin, note, you have to increment XYZ by
+ hand for <XYZ+1>, because bzr does not support "after:XYZ".)
+ git: git rebase --onto XYZ~1 XYZ
+ other VCSs?
+Note that all of these _change_the_repo_history_, so only do this on
+your interface-specific repo before it interacts with any other repo.
