Filing this "bug" just for documentation purposes. It's not actually a bug, I found out while recreating this that you can use git reflog to find the previous commit SHA, then git checkout to recover it.

When working on a new recipe, if you commit (but don't push) changes to the recipe and then run abra app deploy, abra will perform some git operations that seems to delete pending commits.

Steps to reproduce:

Start working on a new recipe, git repo initialized at commit 8f318943

$ abra recipe new test
INFO new recipe 'test' created: /root/.abra/recipes/test
INFO happy hacking 🎉

$ abra app new test
INFO single server detected, choosing default automatically
? Specify app domain test.default
INFO test.default created (version: 8f318943)

Start hacking on the recipe by committing a change but not pushing it yet:

$ cd ~/.abra/recipes/test
$ echo "hi" >> README.md 

# git commit -am "wip"
[detached HEAD 83a55a2] wip
 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)

# git log

The solution is to use git reflog to find the previous commit SHA, then git chekout to recover it:

# git reflog
83a55a2 HEAD@{0}: commit: wip
f80d901 (main) HEAD@{1}: commit: wip


# git checkout 83a55a2
Previous HEAD position was 8f31894 init
HEAD is now at 83a55a2 wip

@mac-chaffee thanks for opening!

yeh this is not ideal. the key lines from the logs are:

DEBU <recipe/git.go:48> ensuring env version 8f318943
DEBU <recipe/git.go:154> attempting to checkout '8f318943' as chaos commit

where the abra app new test dropped (version: 8f318943) into the app .env.

then abra app deploy checks that out, causing the commits to be "lost".

this seems like kind of an edge case but maybe we could improve the general situation with letting people know what version is pinned and that there are other commits? this is a general problem atm i think, as we just introduced the .env version pinning stuff. see #554 for more learning "on the job". we're getting into tricky UI/UX gymnastics then but maybe it's worth it. if you have ideas, i'm all ears.
