Based on gtd's answer and the ability to script inverting the commits this is what I'm using now:

[alias]                                                                                                                                                                                                              
    swaplast = !git tag _invert && git reset --hard HEAD~2 && git cherry-pick _invert _invert~1 && git tag -d _invert                                                                                            
    invertindex = !git commit -m tmp1 && git add -A && git commit -m tmp2 && git swaplast && git reset HEAD~1 && git reset HEAD~1 --soft
