Reflog support

105 votes

Git's reflog has the ability to find commits that may have been "lost" due to an accidental branch deletion and gives the ability to reduce the size of a repository by pruning those same "lost" commits.

Git SCM reference link: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-reflog

As a user I would like the ability to see commits in the tree that may have been "lost" for one reason or another and have the ability to restore or prune (git reflog expire --expire=time) those commits individually or prune commits older than a given time. "Lost" commits should have the ability to be checked out or cherry picked onto current branch as well.

The "undo" option has improved the situation, but this is still one of the features that I'm missing. Also, the console's reflog output can be quite hard to read and currently I'm using another GIT GUI tool then to visulalize this. Would be nice to have this in GitKraken.

It's a year later and this feature is still missing. So I keep using "gitk --reflog" as the GUI solution.
