Ignore my little joke, your packages are fine. :)

Well, except for one which contained two versions of a very small
tarball but doesn't anymore, and is not really worth fixing.

There's currently no history to zero out, until you can successfully
push to the AUR without the .SRCINFO hook declining you, nothing will be
uploaded at all.

If you're uncomfortable with git amend/rebase, then you could simply
switch to a new directory, init a new repository, and cp over the
PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO and any other files in the source array which are
not remotely downloaded, then begin the history from scratch.  As long
as you commit all files in the first commit it should be fine.
