Recovery and Safe Undo

This generated surface maps a learner-facing curriculum unit to its canonical source routes.

Curriculum surface

  • Open learner-facing unit
  • Curriculum path: content/curriculum/foundations/pre-semester-launchpad/module-03-git-fundamentals/reference/05-recovery-and-safe-undo.md
  • App: foundations
  • Semester: pre-semester-launchpad
  • Module: module-03-git-fundamentals
  • Unit kind: reference
  • Curation level: module_curated

Learning objectives

  • Use Recovery and Safe Undo as targeted reinforcement instead of treating the source books as a separate reading track.
  • Choose the smallest source route that resolves the current blocker and then return to the learner path.
  • Extract one clarification or example from git-from-the-bottom-up, pro-git that makes the current module easier to execute.

Prerequisites

  • Comfort navigating files and editing text from Module 02.
  • A local repository or sandbox where mistakes are acceptable.

Source books

  • git-from-the-bottom-up
  • pro-git

External enrichment

  • Git Documentation: git-reflog (official_docs_companion) - Useful when the learner needs to recover state safely and should rely on exact command behavior.
  • Git Documentation: git-reset (official_docs_companion) - Important when recovering work, because vague summaries are less useful than the real command semantics.

AI companion modes

  • Explain simply
  • Diagnose my confusion
  • Revision mode
  • Connect forward / backward

Source-of-truth note

This teaching unit is learner-facing guidance assembled from multiple canonical book routes. Use the listed source books as the primary conceptual spine for Recovery and Safe Undo, and treat outside material as supporting enrichment only.
