Never understood why this is such a trope. There’s very little you can’t recover in git (basically, only changes you never committed in the first place).
Not sure if serious or not, but yeah I use interactive rebases every day, many times a day (it’s nice for keeping a clean, logical history of atomic changes).
It’s very simple to recover if you accidentally do something you don’t intend (git rebase --abort if the rebase is still active, git reflog to find the commit before the rebase if it’s finished).
If you’ve ever royally fucked something up in git, that hotline is necessary

Have you ever tried a rebase?
