Can't help with a repo, sorry... but have a couple of ideas:

* It's worth keeping a backup of the broken repo on your machine. That  
way we can do a postmortem and attempt work out what on earth happened  
to those commits.

* Can anyone remember any of the text of the commit messages? If I'm  
right and a rebase rewrote the commit numbers then it's possible that  
they might be sitting as dangling commits inside your repository,  
under different commit numbers. A git fsck might find those if you try  
it on your repo and examine each dangling commit in turn.

HTH,
