What problem does it solve?

Recovering lost work after git operations or validation runs can be fragile without a clear, reliable recovery workflow. This guide explains how to locate, inspect, and restore files from deterministic validation snapshots and git history.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Locate recent validation snapshots using vv history and identify the exact tree-hash to recover.
  • Safely restore a single file or an entire directory from a tree-hash with git cat-file and git checkout, preserving prior states.
  • Handle scenarios such as deleted untracked files, accidental hard resets, crashes, or branch switches, with guidance for verification and pruning.

Quick Start

Identify the most recent valid validation snapshot with vv history, then restore the desired file using git cat-file and the appropriate tree-hash.
