Removed local branch and wrote over it with remote

By accident I deleted local branch. Then I wrote over it with remote branch (same name), now all of the changes for the story are gone..

Is there any way to restoring the local branch i deleted?

   $ git branch -D branch-name
   $ git branch checkout branch-name

Help appreciated A lot

Did you make any commits while on your original local branch? If so they might still be visible with git log or git reflog. If the most recent commit is still there you can apply it to the branch that you just created.

There's also a chance that the commits might accessible using git fsck --full to detect if they are considered a dangling git object.

Hope this helps.
