By accident i deleted PHP files with:

git clean -xfd

There is any good files recover tool for Windown PC to recover those files? Or any other good solution?

Thanks!

wish its not late for this... but... if you didn't change the remote branch yet, you can make this:

git fetch --all // make you localrepo match with remoteRepo

(you can use -- if you want to fetch just 1 branch)

git reset --hard origin/<remote_branch>

With those commands you will have your local branch as the remote branch.

Example:

File = index.html

Remote branch(dev) = <html>... a lot of stuff ... </html>

Local Branch(dev) = <html><html><html><html>Bugged or deleted<html><html>

After git fetch --dev && git reset --hard origin/dev you local branch will be like the remote one.
