I don't know if you're joking, but in case you're not: git reflog
and git reset --hard HEAD@{n}
is your friend. You can undo almost anything. Deleted commits and branches aren't really deleted. Remotely deleted branches can be pushed again.
Except for an (accidental) git restore
/git reset
. Those are permanent and can't be undone.
Reminder that Politico is owned by Axel-Springer-Verlag, a very conservative, sensationalist, and manipulating German tabloid publisher. There biggest "newspaper" is the Bild-"Zeitung", which is on the same level as the Sun or the National Inquirer. You probably shouldn't read them, they propagate hate and culture war.
