That's not a mistake git can do that to people. Especially those who have never used git via command line.

Yeah, imagine you accidently commit over weeks of work, or hell, if it's the main branch, and you deleted the other origin branch prior to merging, it could be a lot more than a few weeks worth of work. The revert to a previous commit... shutters.

That’s when you call in a wizard.

They do git necromancy and sacrifice a goat to the reflog to recover your code
