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? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
