> you can only delete the human input once

    git branch "backup/$(git branch --show-current)/$(date +%s)"
    # do whatever you fancy
    git reset --hard "backup/$(git branch --show-current)/${thattimestampabove}"
You can't lose anything as long as you have a pointer to it (which doubles as making it easy to find)

      That is like learn to trust the indestructibility of matter. I can still lose (not able to locate...) my keys even though they still exist!

My human inputs are usually commit messages like "awdjhwahdwadga" until I do the rebase at the end
