git restore deleted files from uncommited changes in local

Question

I have uncommitted changes in my local branch (development2) and there were some file that were inadvertently deleted. I was restoring the files back into my local with the following command:

git checkout -- /path/to/my/files

I was copying and pasting each individual file using this command, unfortunately I ran the command

git checkout --

which brought back all the files, which I did not want to do, I wanted to go through and bring back specific files. I still have not committed my changes, is there a way I can fix this?

Answer 1

If you have done git add FILE_YOU_WANT at lease once, git reflog might help you.

If no, no hope...
