+This command manages the information recorded in the reflogs\&.
.sp
Reference logs, or "reflogs", record when the tips of branches and other references were updated in the local repository\&. Reflogs are useful in various Git commands, to specify the old value of a reference\&. For example, \fBHEAD@{2}\fR means "where HEAD used to be two moves ago", \fBmaster@{one\&.week\&.ago}\fR means "where master used to point to one week ago in this local repository", and so on\&. See \fBgitrevisions\fR(7) for more details\&.

.sp
The "show" subcommand (which is also the default, in the absence of any subcommands) shows the log of the reference provided in the command\-line (or \fBHEAD\fR, by default)\&. The reflog covers all recent actions, and in addition the \fBHEAD\fR reflog records branch switching\&. \fBgit reflog show\fR is an alias for \fBgit log \-g \-\-abbrev\-commit \-\-pretty=oneline\fR; see \fBgit-log\fR(1) for more information\&.
