How to revert 'git reset' command

How to revert 'git reset' command

[paragkalra]

Hi All,

I have just started learning - Git. Today while exploring Git, I executed
following:

git reset

Now 'git status' is showing some files under - 'Unstaged changes after
reset:'

How can I revert back the effect of - 'git reset'

Cheers,
Parag

Como esta, paragkalra?

You may want to try to make a new commit:

git commit -a

Another way is to rerpair your Git history from your remote repository, if one exists

If "git reset" was run without any other options nor arguments (which
paragkalra seems to have done), there is no damage in the git history that
needs to be repaired.  "git reset" by default only resets the index to
match the commit that is checked out.  All that is lost is "git add" done
since that commit.
