I understand the impulse to be empathetic and kind. But it's very hard to respond in good faith to someone who just made a post where more than half the words are "fuck you".

A feature that permanently deletes 5000 files with one click without warning deserves a fuck you.

It had a reasonably clear warning, though; a screenshot is included in this response from the devs. But note that the response also links to another issue where some bikeshedding on the warning occurred and the warning was ultimately improved.

If you have no idea what Git is, that warning message is not telling you you’re about to delete 5000 files.

But I wonder if this person maybe does know about Git because they used the word „stage“.
