Is there a way to tell, from the
git reflogview, that the third commit is orphaned?I think there is a way. The term is “an unreachable” commit. I don’t know the commands though.
I don't think you can do it with
reflog.However, you can use
git fsck --lost-found. This command will give you all dangling blobs and commits.After the command, check the
