my impression of git is that you don't change stuff that's already 
committed.  you revert changes by applying a new commit that backs out 
the original changes.  i'm speculating, but i suspect that's why there's 
a "stg pick --reverse" and not a "stg uncommit."

It is ok as long as you know what are you doing - if you don't push out
the commits you've just "undid" (or work on a public accessible
repository in the first place, but I think that's kind of rare these
days; quick survey - does anyone reading these lines do that?), there's
nothing wrong on it, and it gives you nice flexibility.

Yes, and this is one problem I envision with publishing a git repository
with an stgit stack applied - somebody later doing a pull of it will not
find the head revision they had.  I'm not sure what the net effect of
this will be, though.
