NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-lost-found - Recover lost refs that luckily have not yet been pruned |
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git-lost-found' |
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
*NOTE*: this command is deprecated. Use linkgit:git-fsck[1] with |
|
the option '--lost-found' instead. |
|
|
|
Finds dangling commits and tags from the object database, and |
|
creates refs to them in the .git/lost-found/ directory. Commits and |
|
tags that dereference to commits are stored in .git/lost-found/commit, |
|
and other objects are stored in .git/lost-found/other. |
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT |
|
------ |
|
Prints to standard output the object names and one-line descriptions |
|
of any commits or tags found. |
|
|
|
EXAMPLE |
|
------- |
|
|
|
Suppose you run 'git tag -f' and mistype the tag to overwrite. |
|
The ref to your tag is overwritten, but until you run 'git |
|
prune', the tag itself is still there. |
|
|

$ git lost-found |

|
... |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
Also you can use gitk to browse how any tags found relate to each |
|
other. |
|
|
|
------------ |
|
$ gitk $(cd .git/lost-found/commit && echo ??*) |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
After making sure you know which the object is the tag you are looking |
|
for, you can reconnect it to your regular .git/refs hierarchy. |
