One of my commits is missing

One of my commits is missing

[Luke Diamand]

My last commit seems to have vanished, and I wonder if anyone knows 
where it might have gone.

I had a branch with a big pile of changes on it, and I merged those onto 
a second branch to tidy it all up and fix one last bug.

I did a git-commit, and then created a third branch to start some other 
unrelated work (git-checkout -b ...).

Now that second branch no longer has my last commit.

Obviously most of my changes are still on the first branch, but I'd 
quite like to get back my commit.

Looking through my history I don't see any signs of errant git-reset's 
so I'm baffled.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Luke Diamand

I'm baffled too.  Have a look at your HEAD reflog and see if you
can find it there (`git log -g`) as if you actually did in fact
create it with git-commit it should appear in that reflog for at
least the next 90 days (by default config anyway).
