How do I move commits I haven't pushed into a new branch?
% git log origin..master --pretty=format:'%h' f7d3a19 1f186c9 66d99f6
Which I'd like to be in a new branch.

Do you want them to be on the new branch as they are, i.e. as commits built on top of master? Then
git branch mybranch master
will create a new branch "mybranch" which contains those commits. If you want to "remove" them from master, then
git checkout master # unless you are there already git reset --keep origin/master
to "rewind" master to commit "origin/master".

Oh cool, I think that's what I wanted. I didn't realize it was that easy - I said screw it and went and pushed them, but... for next time (or I'll stop being stupid and work in a branch from now on).
Thanks
