Git 在任何提交之前恢复已删除的文件

Question

I've just started a new repository that had some files already, then I did git add . but after that i did git rm -r -f ./ and that deleted all the files. Is there any way to get them back? I didn't do any commit before that.

Answer 1

You may to be able to retrieve contents of the deleted files with git fsck and git show . See the following example - we create a new repository, create a new file, add it to the index, then run git rm :

$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/ja/so/git-rm/.git/
$ echo hello > FILE
$ git add FILE
$ git status
On branch master

Initial commit

Changes to be committed:
  (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)

        new file:   FILE

$ git rm -r -f ./
rm 'FILE'
$ git status
On branch master

Initial commit

nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track)

Our FILE is now lost:

$ ls -Al
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 7 ja users 4096 Mar 12 16:17 .git

Let's try to retrieve its contents with git fsck and git show :

$ git fsck
notice: HEAD points to an unborn branch (master)
Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
notice: No default references
dangling blob ce013625030ba8dba906f756967f9e9ca394464a
$ git show ce013625030ba8dba906f756967f9e9ca394464a
hello

Answer 2

There is no way to undo "rm -r -f" command. Never use rm -f command if you don't commits the changes. without -f option git rm check uncommitted files.
