Hi all,
I have a corrupted git repo.I've worked through the process

<https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitFaq#How_to_fix_a_broken_repository.3F> but still have some problem.

1- at the beginning, with "git fsck --full", it showed:

Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done. dangling blob 13dcdade560f11e8bc2d865a0d4a1a1133e5b132 dangling tree 5c9e60742ff24bb19fd73a8c1c879c4e10951b78 missing blob 96209289c92e6ef0e6beb6ec1644f93981b00829 dangling blob f61e50d30fa95683067aa2a50380e3dd7033e6dd dangling tree 95b5c5eeec8ac9359a31b268b938c142443d783a dangling commit d41b93032b34e380030207b5c8f502c6ecfd56ad dangling blob dae58bd96104c1292a20e1b8c8c948025e2e8924 missing blob e187557d07857b974ea51e3ea962ac120cfc9488

2- since I don't have a "broken link" message,I use $ git commit -m "fixing git repo",it said:

error: invalid object 100644 e187557d07857b974ea51e3ea962ac120cfc9488 for 'proje ct5/css/style.css' error: Error building trees

3- and then   I use $ git hash-object -w project5/css/style.css, it said:

git hash-object -w project5/css/style.css f61e50d30fa95683067aa2a50380e3dd7033e6dd

the result is not the missing blob (e187557d07857b974ea51e3ea962ac120cfc9488)

4- so I use $ git log --raw --all --full-history -- project5/css/style.css, it said:

5-here is my problem,how can I looking at those older and newer versions(Could someone point me to which commands I should look at? Still new to git:)) so that I can use the next step git hash-object -w <recreated-file> and could someone tell me what should I do with <recreated-file>,is it still project5/css/style.css ?

Thanks in advance, Yvonne.
