====== Ubuntu - GIT - git fsck ======

This is GIT's file system checker, which makes sure that every available object is reachable and valid.

When references like branches are deleted, the objects (e.g., Commit objects) aren't usually deleted but aren't reachable.

This is useful (as with reflog) to recover deleted branches, but especially useful with recovering remote branches.
