## Pre-requisite: You have to know your last commit message from your deleted branch. | |
git reflog | |
# Search for message in the list | |
# a901eda HEAD@{18}: commit: <last commit message> | |
# Now you have two options, either checkout revision or HEAD | |
git checkout a901eda | |
# Or | |
git checkout HEAD@{18} | |
# Create branch | |
git branch recovered-branch | |
# You may want to push that back to remote | |
git push origin recovered-branch:recovered-branch |
