As long as nobody is actually using the staging repo rewriting history
should not be an issue. Perhaps one could just do

$ git reset --hard HEAD^1
$ git push origin master

and be done with it?

That said, we might not benefit much from a staging repo if we fix the
problems buildbot finds quickly. Sure, the repo might not be 100%
correct / functional all the time, but the impact should be fairly low
compared to pushing out broken releases.

Any opinions, anyone?
