    wrote a readme file

git log 命令显示从最近到最远的提交日志, 我们可以看到3次提交
如果我们使用了git reset --hard HEAD^ 回退了上一个版本,我们会发现 log中的日志是没有最新的 append GPL记录的

$ git log
commit e475afc93c209a690c39c13a46716e8fa000c366
Author: Michael Liao <askxuefeng@gmail.com>

    add distributed

    wrote a readme file

那么如果我们需要 append GPL 信息的话, 我们可以选择使用 git reflog 命令

$ git reflog
e475afc HEAD@{1}: reset: moving to HEAD^
1094adb (HEAD -> master) HEAD@{2}: commit: append GPL
e475afc HEAD@{3}: commit: add distributed
eaadf4e HEAD@{4}: commit (initial): wrote a readme file

然后我们就可以看见 append GPL 的 commit id 然后为所欲为了
