要約

This Knowledgebase article describes alternative ways to restore a deleted branch in Bitbucket Data Center.

ソリューション

Solution 1 - Push the branch from a local copy

If a user has a local copy of the repository, that person can just push the deleted branch back to the remote repository.

Solution 2 - Review the Push logs in Bitbucket and recreate the branch from the UI

Push logs record pushes to repositories, as well as branch creation and deletion events. This feature is available starting from Bitbucket version 7.1.

Using Push logs:

• Open the push logs for the repository
• Select the deleted branch from the Branch  dropdown
• Review the push logs to determine the last commit in the branch before it was deleted
  Sample
  
• Click the commit hash in the push logs to open the commit on a new page
• Create a tag for the commit.
  Sample
  
  
• Recreate the branch based from the tag created in the previous step.
  Open the Create Branch page then choose the tag under Branch from > Tags 
  Sample
  
  Set the branch name and click Create branch 

Solution 3 - Review the git reflog and recreate the branch from a local copy 

Using Git: 

• First, on your local repository, perform git reflog. This will list down all previous HEADs. Find the latest commit hash for the branch that you have deleted.
• Once you have the commit hash, perform git reset --hard <commit>. This will revert the HEAD back to the latest commit on the branch
• Recreate the branch again and checkout to that new branch git checkout -b <branchname>
• Then push the branch, git push origin <branchname>

Important note: please take a full backup before performing these steps
