If I reset my last commit using git reset --hard HEAD^, how do I undo the reset?

@TatsuyukiIshi If he nuked his working directory without having committed or stashed, the work really might be lost. Perhaps the IDE has a history feature in such a case. Commented Mar 13, 2017 at 14:26

I agree with you that the cure is the same, however the two questions are a bit different,
rebaseis notreset --hard. So your anwser is great to me except the part where you sayThis is already asked many times, a bit confusing I think– smarberCommented Mar 13, 2017 at 14:30
