I was working on my code project that uses git that I don't really understand too much. I thought if I hard reset my head I would have only the last work. Now I have found out that I have lost my work after doing git reset --hard HEAD. Maybe I had all my work on git add status and when I did the command everything is gone. I tried a lot to look for a solution but didn't understand any one of it, and I'm worrying if I do something it will make it worse.

How can I recover from that problem?

I did git log in the first and I had 2 now I have only one one after I did my mistake. As you can see now I have only one:

I remember that the name was "initial commit" instead of v1. When I do reflog I still can see it. Is there any way to fix that and bring back this work please?

Step 1 - do not panic. Step 2 - learn about reachability in git. Step 3 - realise the issue is not an issue and use the reflog to "recover". – evolutionxbox May 14 '18 at 14:25
i.e. use `git reset --hard 9eeac25` – evolutionxbox May 14 '18 at 14:25
