Summary
When you're staring at "detached HEAD" or just accidentally nuked three hours of work with a bad reset, this walks you through the recovery. It covers the reflog forensics, fsck for finding dangling commits, conflict resolution with three-way diffs, and the full rebase recovery dance. The real value is in the specific commands for each mess you can make: recovering deleted branches, fixing corrupted pack files, undoing public commits with revert instead of reset. It's basically the runbook you wish you had bookmarked at 11pm when git stops making sense. Honest take: if you've ever Googled "git undo" in a panic, you'll reference this repeatedly.
