It's too late for me to make sense :-) . An ungarbled final paragraph:

Being honest, my only serious issue was with git reset. For about first five times I knew the "operation" I wanted to perform but carefully checked the man-page because I wasn't sure whether --hard or --soft corresponded to the operation I wanted (and didn't want to take any chances of picking the wrong one).
