git stash

create a stash
```
git stash save ["name of stash"]
```
view list of stashes
```
git stash list
```
view diff of stash
```
git stash show --unified stash@{0}
```
see which commit the stash was based on (note if you don't give a stash a specific custom name, it tells you this in the name by default)
```
git show-branch master stash@{0}
```
apply stash to current working directory, removing the stash if successful
```
git stash pop [optional stash reference such as stash@{0}]
```

delete a stash

git stash drop [optional stash reference]

tips

I prefer to make branches, then just type git stash save; then, when I run git stash list it shows me WIP on <branchname> so I know what that stash was about, rather than staying on master and naming a stash
I prefer bash aliases for working with stashes
- gss = git stash save
- gsl = git stash list
- gsp = git stash pop
- gsa = git stash apply
