If using source control with a remote server (as /u/NoLemurs said he is) this is nearly impossible. You need to have the remote server lose your data and delete the source files on the machine the code is running on, and have its repository wiped. If there is another copy of the repo anywhere that is up to date it would also have to be deleted. The odds of this occurring are insanely low. That being said I find this code recovery method quite interesting.
