That's not even an revert.  

Right.

Can't you simply amend it away?

	$ git rm not-this-file
        $ git commit --amend

Right, I've done that. But the fact that un-committing the initial
commit was not possible seemed strange to me. At least the error message
should be clearer, don't you think?

"You said HEAD^ but there is no such thing?  What are you talking about?"

That sounds clear enough to me, but if you have a patch to improve it,
please send it in.
