You can also leave out the --hard part, so the untracked files won't be 
touched. Note however that this will not touch the whole working copy, it 
will just clear the index and move HEAD. So every other files toched by 
those new commits will show up on git status. Those can be manually reset 
(or reverted in svn terms) by git checkout HEAD <file>
