No problem, sponsored uploads are the best time to make mistakes and
learn from them.

It’s OK if the commit with "upload to unstable" is not the one tied to
the actual upload, only the debian/xxx tag shoud be in sync with what is
sent to the archive (actually even that tag is only a convention, but
it’s one I strongly suggest following).

If you look at this example, I too did a mistake and made the "0.49.0-1
release targeting Debian unstable" commit a bit too early, not noticing
an error I then fix in the following commit:
https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/openmw/-/commits/debian/0.49.0-1

Don’t try too hard to get a perfect looking git history, what matters
most is what ends up in the debian/changelog file. This is the only kind
of history the users of that package are going to see.
