 One of the cardinal rules of Git is that, since so much work is local within your clone, you have a great deal of freedom to rewrite your history _locally_.
 However, once you push your work, it is a different story entirely, and you should consider pushed work as final unless you have good reason to change it.

+There is another history-rewriting option that you can use if you need to rewrite a larger number of commits in some scriptable way -- for instance, changing your email address globally or removing a file from every commit.
 The command is `filter-branch`, and it can rewrite huge swaths of your history, so you probably shouldn't use it unless your project isn't yet public and other people haven't based work off the commits you're about to rewrite.
 However, it can be very useful.
 You'll learn a few of the common uses so you can get an idea of some of the things it's capable of.
