That is not what is happening here.

Simply being better than SVN is not very hard, and most git workflows accomplish that.

If you're committing first, I doubt it's actually nuked.

If you're skipping committing before doing strange things, then stop doing that. That's not some kind of condescending and useless "do it better", it's like telling you to flip the breaker before you start rewiring your house.
