How to recover after i execute :git reset --hard HEAD

I made a terrible mistake and execute \"git reset --hard HEAD\", all day\'s the local modification lost, how can i recover it?

Answer 1

First run:

git reflog

It will show history of your HEAD pointer. Then select sha-code of a necessary state from first column. I think it will be near HEAD@{1} if you made just git reset --hard once. And then

git merge SHA_CODE

Bingo!
