Can I recover a branch after its deletion in Git?

Question

If I run git branch -d XYZ, is there a way to recover the branch? Is there a way to go back as if I didn\'t run the delete branch command?

Answer 1

For recovering a deleted branch, First go through the reflog history,

git reflog -n 60

Where n refers to the last n commits. Then find the proper head and create a branch with that head.

git branch testbranch HEAD@{30}
