[HELP] A local branch has disappeared

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

Today I found my current branch (named cupcake) has disappeared.
git@tomato:~/golf$ git branch -a
  htc_cupcake
  tmo_cupcake
  origin/HEAD
  origin/cupcake
  origin/device

As you can see, there is no "*" to mark the current branch.

But when I check the HEAD, it still pointed to the cupcake branch
git@tomato:~/golf$ cat .git/HEAD
ref: refs/heads/cupcake

But when I check the ref/heads, the cupcake is missing
git@tomato:~/golf$ ls .git/refs/heads/
htc_cupcake  tmo_cupcake

And the cupcake in still in the config:
git@tomato:~/golf$ cat .git/config
[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        bare = false
        logallrefupdates = true
        sharedRepository = 1
[remote "origin"]
        url = /home/rick/golfresort/device/.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "cupcake"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/cupcake

I'm confused:
1. I didn't do any aggressive operations. Why the branch has
disappeared? Normally I have done these operation for this repo:
   i. pull from parent repo
   ii. cloned by children repo
   iii. pulled by children repo
   iv. pushed from children repo
2. Is there any way to resume the cupcake branch? Can I manually add
the cupcake to ref/heads?

Thanks very much for your considerations,
Johnny
