Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

Git: Undo Last Commit does a soft reset, which is usually what a user wants when the commit has not yet been pushed, and often is not what the user wants when the commit has been pushed (since it will then require force-pushing the new commit, which is typically only used by advanced users). VSCode should detect which of these situations it is in and suggest the appropriate action through a dialog.
