Hi, I have a simple local project, with only the master branch. After few commits with Git Extensions, I have realized the label [master] was stuck, it was not pointing at the latest commit any more. Nevertheless I could see a full list of all my new commits with the proper comments in the main window. It looked like I was not on any branch (if this is possible) Then I have tried “checkout master branch”, suddenly all the commits in between the one labelled [master] and the latest one vanished. I have not been able to get back.

I am terribly afraid I have lost 4 day work. Do you have any suggestion? How is it possible that something which I have committed is not retrievable anymore.

I beg someone to help me
Thanks, Jacopo
