The AUR4 does not allow rewriting history. Even if it did allow it, you'd have to use `--force` to push a non-fast-forward change, but it is a moot point because the AUR is set up to deny non-fast-forwards regardless. ;)
I believe the reason is to prevent malicious individuals from adopting an orphaned package and deleting the history. (Part of) the reason we are moving toward git repositories for package maintenance is in order to track package history without the need for *non-official* resources e.g. http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/ -- if maintainers were allowed to delete history, that would be slightly counter-productive. :(
We can't delete our embarrassing mistakes anymore. :-P (Not that we could before, I guess, since it is mirrored, but now our mistakes are on official record.)

ok then in the next time I'll be more careful. (I hope not fill pages and pages and pages of failures in the history) XD greetings
