Thank you for all your answers, I'm not quoting anyone in particular because I'll answer a bit to all of you.

First of all the good news: git reflog is actually the solution: following some advice I found on the web, I reverted back to the first dangling commit and could recover my data.

The bit of bad news is that afterwards the git repository was sort of corrupted, and I'm not able to use it any more. I'm not particularly interested in fixing it now, I think I've had enough.

I don't want to troll, but I don't feel comfortable using a versioning systems that could just delete a bunch of random files, going as far as changing to the parent directory to ensure that destruction is complete. Well, it could have at least been written in the git-reset man page.

Thank you again, your advices were very helpful. It's just that git is not made for me, or I'm not made for git.
