Reflog

The git reflog command (pronounced ref-log, not re-flog) is kinda like git log but stands for "reference log" and specifically logs the changes to a "reference" that have happened over time.

Reflog uses a different format to show the history of a branch or HEAD: one that's more concerned with the number of steps back in time. For example:

reflog	meaning
HEAD@{0}	where HEAD is now
HEAD@{1}	where HEAD was 1 move ago
HEAD@{2}	where HEAD was 2 moves ago
HEAD@{3}	where HEAD was 3 moves ago
...	...
