I accidentely said git rm -r .. How do I recover from this?
I did not commit.
I think all files were marked for deletion and were also physically removed from my local checkout.
EDIT: I could (if I knew the command) revert to the last commit. But it would be a lot better if I could just undo the git rm -r .. Because I am not really sure what I did after the last commit and before the git rm -r ..

The Git rm –cached flag removes a file from the staging area. The files from the working directory will remain intact. This means that you'll still have a copy of the file locally. The file will be removed from the index tracking your Git project.
git reset HEAD Should do it. If you don't have any uncommitted changes that you care about, then
git reset --hard HEAD should forcibly reset everything to your last commit. If you do have uncommitted changes, but the first command doesn't work, then save your uncommitted changes with git stash:
git stash git reset --hard HEAD git stash pop If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
