🧨Three Weeks of Code Gone! One Git Tool Saved It

🚨 We Lost Three Weeks of Code with One Git Command — Here’s What Saved Us

A late night.

A force push.

And suddenly, three weeks of hard work on a critical feature branch… GONE!

We weren’t newbies — just tired developers doing late-night cleanup.

It all started with this:

git reset --hard origin/main
git fetch
git push -f

We stared at the terminal in disbelief.
Our feature branch had synced with main, erasing everything, nothing left in git log, no open PRs, and no backup.

But we weren’t ready to give up — and one powerful (and underrated) Git command became our savior.

💡 Instead of panicking, we prompted ChatGPT and got the working solution.

🧠 We turned the whole experience into a story:
A real-life guide, filled with lessons, visuals, and one magical Git command every dev needs in their toolkit.
