Description of problem:

User's workspace pod crashed due to running out memory. User restarted workspace, after the workspace started, all branches are gone, and git reflog shows no activity besides the cloning of the repository and checking out the default branch.

The restart from default devfile resulted in the persistence strategy for the workspace being changed from per-workspace to per-user. As a result a new claim-workspace PVC was attached to the workspace instead of the previously attached workspace.
