How to recover lost Python source code if it's still resident in-memory

I screwed up using git ("git checkout --" on the wrong file) and managed to delete the code I had just written... but it was still running in a process in a docker container. Here's how I got it back, using https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyrasite/ and https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncompyle6

apt-get update && apt-get install gdb

start new:

tmux

start new with session name:

tmux new -s myname

brew install git bash-completion

Configure things:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

	-- AppleScript to create a new file in Finder
	--
	-- Use it in Automator, with the following configuration:
	-- - Service receives: no input
	-- - In: Finder.app
	--
