fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD^': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

I was using GitX to prepare a commit. Something happened -- I don't 
know what --  and suddenly my branch only had a single commit 
in it that appears to contain all  the files in my tree. So I went to the 
command line and did this:

$ git reset --soft HEAD^ 
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD^': unknown revision or path not 
in the working tree.

When I do 'git log' in this branch, there's only one commit. Now, I 
had many commits in this branch a few minutes ago. I really, 
really, don't want to lose this.

What steps should I take to attempt to recover?
