So there are a few ways to fix an undesired commit. It looks like maybe your local git repo didn't have all the info in your remote repo, which caused your push to overwrite it. In your terminal, use git log to look at the commit history for your local git. If it only lists your test commit, we'll need to find the last good commit (where all the files still existed) a different way.

Go to your github and navigate to your commit history. You should see a commit prior to the last push "some init msg" that overwrote your other files. It will have a hex identifier (in blue) on the right. Copy it!

From your git terminal, you want to use the command: git checkout copiedhex#

This will copy to your local repo the version with all the files. However, you'll be in a detached HEAD state, and should get a message to that effect. You'll want to make this into a new branch by using: git checkout -b some_new_branch_name Then you can proceed as normal (merge it with master or keep working separately, push etc)
