And if you don't "remember" A, the reflog is here for you. $ git reflog show HEAD $ git reset --hard HEAD@{42} # not "the 42th ancestor" # but "where HEAD was 42 moves ago". By default, the reflog will expire after IIRC, 3 months, and git-prune will not prune the objects while they are reachable. So, it's even safer than you say ;-). -- Matthieu - 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
