Recover Force Push on Github

背景

看到有很多教程说，可以本地仓库回退到之前的 commit，恢复 GitHub 的 remote 仓库的，但是我遇到的情况是，我本地这个仓库是新建的，只有一次 commit 记录，我是直接 push -f 把 remote 的仓库全冲了。。。本地根本没法恢复。

于是在网上搜索，只找到两篇相关的文章，参考这个老哥的：

https://www.boris1993.com/rescuing-my-github-repo-from-force-push.html

这个老师是参考的这个老哥：https://gist.github.com/agarwalparas/d355a950148702cc7ba82abc4d1943bf

我按照第二个老哥的方法去试，又按照 github 的官方 doc 修改 API 的参数，但是还是不行

下面总结一下怎么恢复

找到当时的 commit 的信息

首先，要通过 https://api.github.com/repos/:owner/:repo/events 这个 API 找到上次提交的 sha。
