Hi,

I'm a complete idiot and just typed this:

    git branch -d -r origin/master

Is there a way to undo my act of idiocy?

git fetch origin

Which will create it again during the fetch cycle. Unfortunately the reflog for origin/master is gone, so you won't get results for origin/master@{4.days.ago}.

Thanks much, that solved the problem. Will try to educate myself better on remote-tracking branches.
