github - Rollback to uncommited changes after hard reset a Git Repository

Question

Mistakenly, i hard reset my git repository. By doing this all the changes that i have made has been gone. Now, i want to rollback Git to all the uncommitted changes. Please help me with this.

Answer 1

"uncommitted changes" means local repo (even though you have a remote repo on amazon ec2)

That means you must have added (git add) files to a local clone, then do a git reset --hard.

If that is the case, you can still find those added files with a git fsck, as described in Recover files that were added to the index but then removed by a git reset:

• first, do a full backup of your current repo
• then try a git fsck --full --unreachable --no-reflog
