Why do all of my editor references periodically disappear?
I've been working on a relatively small and simple project. Periodically, and I'm not sure what triggers it, all the references I have to things in the editor disappear (both from GameObjects in the scene and instances of ScriptableObjects). Like the fields are there but everything defaults back to 'None' and I have to manually drag everything in to initialize it again. Once or twice when I see this happen I can quit Unity and re-open it and it will be fixed, but this is the minority of the time.
I have had to do this many times - so many in fact that I have basically moved to not using the editor for anything and just create everything in code.
Is this just a normal thing? I have started using git with the project in the hopes that I might be able to roll back when it happens - is that just how everyone operates? Is there some specific action I'm taking that is known to cause this?
This project started on the LTS at the time - 2018.3.14f1 I believe, but was later upgraded to 2019.2.8f1 to see if it would help (it did not). This is on MacOS (was 10.14 and now 10.15).
