For the record: I found it a good practice to clean up my commits (read:
reword commit messages, split/join commits) *even after* pushing them to a
public repository.

Interactive rebase to the rescue.

That practice is not solely for others' benefit, by the way.

You will most likely find that it not only structures your work better,
you will also find that it turns up things that were forgotten and still
need to be addressed.

Ciao,
