I wanted to add one repository's commits in another repository. But I think I made a big mistake.
If I assume that the one is 'A', and the other is 'B', Firstly, I did git clone --mirror
$ git clone --mirror https://github.com/myname/A.git
Cloning into bare repository 'A.git'...

cd A.git
And then, I did git push --mirror https://github.com/myname/B.git
$ git push --mirror https://github.com/myname/B.git

when I check the remote repository, all the origin commits in B were gone. Also history of B became same as A.
And I don't have local repository of A or B because I just kept upload files from colab.
I just want to know if there's a way. Or do I need to email github?
CodePudding user response:
The easiest fix : if you (or anyone) have a clone of B
with the correct version of master
: you (or they) can push it back to B
.
Otherwise : github has an Events api (the possible events returned by this api are listed here), which provides some sort of log of actions taken on the repo.
Look for events with type: "PushEvent"
.
