Git Reflog Command

git-reflog(1) ============= NAME ---- git-reflog - Manage reflog information SYNOPSIS -------- [verse] 'git reflog' [show] [<log-options>] [<ref>] 'git reflog list' 'git reflog expire' [--expire=<time>] [--expire-unreachable=<time>] [--rewrite] [--updateref] [--stale-fix] [--dry-run | -n] [--verbose] [--all [--single-worktree] | <refs>...] 'git reflog delete' [--rewrite] [--updateref] [--dry-run | -n] [--verbose] <ref>@{<specifier>}... 'git reflog drop' [--all [--single-worktree] | <refs>...] 'git reflog exists' <ref> DESCRIPTION ----------- This command manages the information recorded in the reflogs. Reference logs, or "reflogs", record when the tips of branches and other references were updated in the local repository. Reflogs are useful in various Git commands, to specify the old value of a reference. For example, `HEAD@{2}` means "where HEAD used to be two moves ago", `master@{one.week.ago}` means "where master used to point to one week ago in this local repository", and so on. See linkgit:gitrevisions[7] for more details. The command takes various subcommands, and different options depending on the subcommand: The "show" subcommand (which is also the default, in the absence of any subcommands) shows the log of the reference provided in the command-line (or `HEAD`, by default). The reflog covers all recent actions, and in addition the `HEAD` reflog records branch switching. `git reflog show` is an alias for `git log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline`; see linkgit:git-log[1] for more information. The "list" subcommand lists all refs which have a corresponding reflog. The "expire" subcommand prunes older reflog entries. Entries older than `expire` time, or entries older than `expire-unreachable` time and not reachable from the current tip, are removed from the reflog. This is typically not used directly by end users -- instead, see linkgit:git-gc[1]. The "delete" subcommand deletes single entries from the reflog, but not the reflog itself. Its argument must be an _exact_ entry (e.g. "`git reflog delete master@{2}`"). This subcommand is also typically not used directly by end users. The "drop" subcommand completely removes the reflog for the specified references. This is in contrast to "expire" and "delete", both of which can be used to delete reflog entries, but not the reflog itself. The "exists" subcommand checks whether a ref has a reflog. It exits with zero status if the reflog exists, and non-zero status if it does not. OPTIONS ------- Options for `show` ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ `git reflog show` accepts any of the options accepted by `git log`. Options

The git-reflog command is used to manage reflog information in a Git repository, including showing, listing, expiring, deleting, and dropping reflogs, which record updates to branches and other references in the local repository.
