Not at all. "git rm ..." will remove the file from the repository,
i.e. it will have an effect for *everyone else*.

Forgive me, but I think the confusion here is due to the fact that `git reset <file>' will remove it from the curennt index, while `git rm --cache <file>' will remove it from the repository completely, while leaving the current local copy in tact.
