Re: "git svn reset" only resets current branch ?

As an alternative, we could also allow "git svn reset" to take us back
into the future to undo any such mistake without refetching.

You can't do that directly, since data is destroyed (specifically, the
rev_map is truncated back to the selected revision).  However, you can
"git reset" the branch back to where it was using the reflog, and then
the next git-svn command you run will rebuild the rev_map from the
comment metadata (obviously you're out of luck if you set "no_metadata").

It's possible that "git-svn reset" should be saving something like
ORIG_HEAD (comments welcome) but that does conflict with the idea of
adding "--all" or defaulting to "--all" behavior.

Well, adding --all would probably be better after all.
