 Some [git](https://git-scm.com/) tricks I use from time to time and that I forgot everytime…
 
+**Disclaimer:** I'm not the perfect git user, and my way of using it is especially crude.
+Recently, most of my git commits are due to [`pass`](/password-store.html), therefore most of those commands are here to fix my mistakes.
+
 Reset `master` to `origin/master`:
 ```sh
 git co origin/master -B master
 ```
 
+Find back lost commits, especially useful when you are doing dirty things and want to `cherry-pick` an orphan commit (for instance):
+```sh
+git log --graph --reflog
+```
+Some explanations: `--graph` show the commit tree, which is useful to notice the orphan leafs, and `--reflog` shows the world all the dirtiness you've done.
+
+If you noticed that your folder grows, you can manually cast the garbage collector on it. It should do it automatically, but not often enough according to my standards.
+```sh
+git gc --aggressive
+```
+
 Another useful trick is `git commit -v`, it allows reviewing your changes before committing.
