Git Submodules and Subtrees make me miss SVN externals. Normally I berate everyone that uses SVN (to be cool), but externals were simple AF

Spent like all week working on a feature set in a web app, finally got to a point where i thought it was functioning well, ran tests, tests passed.

I was exhausted but happy. All along i have been pushing to my GitLab server. I save my commits and even though exhausted, i am happy as i go to bed.

I wake up, run some errands and my business partner says, eh! Can i come see that new feature set you built, sure, i will be home soon.

I was at the barbershop, trying to look like a human being again. I get home boot my computer and i scream.....

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh

I check GitLab, i check my Git Log and i start to sweat, i was in the air conditioner but it felt like someone turned the heat up.

Git log shows my last commit was 2 days ago, my app is at the state it was 2 days ago and i can't frigging find all i have built.

I need to show this to the client, have no idea what to do now, so stressful. My partner say, you know what, just watch a movie. You built it before, you will do it again.

This happened to him a while ago and i gave him similar advice, it felt wicked hearing it now.

Anyways, i have to build that ish all over again, i do know i wasn't dreaming about having built it. I asked my wife and she said, i did, i was always working. So confusing.

Anyone experienced this before, i have no idea how to find my code.

Help Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
