Undoing a keep reset the same as undoing a hard reset about git-flight-rules

Where is the answer to "I accidentally did a --keep reset, and I want my changes back"? I don't see it in the doc.

That's what I mean: "I accidentally did a --keep reset, and I want my changes back" is not in the doc, but it would be helpful to have it in the doc. If it were in the doc, then I'm pretty sure the answer would be the same as the answer to "I accidentally did a hard reset, and I want my changes back" (which is already in the doc).

One option would be to extend the wording of the existing "hard" question to also include "keep". Another option would be to add a separate "keep" question, which would have an identical answer as the "hard" question.

That said, I don't have much experience digging through the reflog, so I'm not 100% certain that the answer to "keep" is the same as the answer to "hard". There could be some arcane reason why undoing a reset --keep needs to be subtly different from undoing a reset --hard.

I would just add a line to the section saying that "this also works if you accidentally ...". That should make it serchable.

Sounds like this would be a fun thing to find out! Would you like to look into it, and submit the changes in a PR?
