I have accidentally deleted my .git directory
I've reinstantiated the repository with git init and readded my remote with git remote add origin [email protected]
How do I specify which branch I am currently on without losing my work?

I ended up doing the following sequence:
git add .gitignore
git commit -m "temp
git stash
git checkout initial_branch_i_was_on
git fetch
git rebase origin/develop
git stash pop
And then manually resolving the handful or rebase issues. Everything said and done it was painless enough. Whether or not there is a better way I don't know.
