As someone who has done something similar in the past, I don't feel bad about laughing. 🤣 (Also this guy got the advice he needed.)
A Git GUI is a nice option to have, especially when it is integrated into your IDE, but it isn't for everyone. Not all Git GUIs are created equal, and they don't all provide access to the Git features that you may need to perform certain types of more uncommon or advanced operations or correct some mistakes. They also tend to be opinionated about your workflow in ways that Git is not, and may obscure what is actuality being committed and pushed, making mistakes like OP's easier to make rather than making them more obvious. A good understanding of Git fundamentals, careful adherence to always staging and reviewing your changes before committing, and maybe a plugin for your shell prompt that shows you your Git status at a glance, like powerline-gitstatus, can go a long way, regardless of whether you are using a Git GUI or are comfortable with the Git command line.

Cleaning Your Git History: Safely Removing Sensitive Data
**WARNING**: git-filter-branch has a glut of gotchas generating mangled history rewrites. Hit Ctrl-C before proceeding to abort, then use an alternative filtering tool such as 'git filter-repo' (https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/) instead. See the filter-branch manual page for more details; to squelch this warning, set FILTER_BRANCH_SQUELCH_WARNING=1. Proceeding with filter-branch...

(RE not sharing inputs) PSA: "deleting" and committing to git doesn't actually remove it
Yup you need https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo Take a look at https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/blob/main/INSTALL.md for instructions

How I teach Git
git filter-repo: a third-party command actually, as a replacement to Git's own filter-branch, that allows rewriting the whole history of a repository to remove a mistakenly added file, or help extract part of the repository to another.

Merging old repos into a monolithic git repo archive
I needed to archive some old repositories into a monorepo and of course I gave myself the requirement of maintaining git history, in some way. I tried a couple of solutions but it wasn't until I stumbled upon the git-filter-repo project at https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo and another article which I've since lost (which was badly documented anyway) that I was able to figure out how to do this.

Mass edit of .git/objects
Git objects are not designed to be changed, they are immutable blobs. This is not a problem if you are making a reader, but is a problem when you want to change things, tools like old git-filter-branch or the newer filter repo abstract all reference updating away for you

Question about Git LFS
Make sure your gitignore is setup right (GitHub has a repo of good defaults). If you messed that up, you could rewrite git history to remove the big stuff. Use git-filter-repo. Not sure how that works for LFS.

Large initial push.
I personally prefer git-bfg ( https://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/ ) ... though git-filter-repo ( https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo ) is quite popular. The difference for me was that git-bfg is JVM based and my work machine has Java on it while git-filter-repo is python based... and my work machine is without python.
- Is there a way to scrub certain info from a repo's history? I wanna make a repo public, but at one point I stored my API client credentials in the code. Presumably that makes it technically unsafe to ever share that repo. What to do?
What are some alternatives?
