Only the usual "delete your local copy" story. Then at some point I learned that commits are just a bunch of nodes and branches are tags that move and nothing bad ever happened after that.
The real nightmares come from other systems, like IBM Rational Synergy. Bugs like not transmitting all lines of a file come to mind.
