====== git stash ======

  * create a stash<code>git stash save ["name of stash"]</code>
  * view list of stashes<code>git stash list</code>
  * view diff of stash<code>git stash show --unified stash@{0}</code>
  * 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)<code>git show-branch master stash@{0}</code>
  * apply stash to current working directory, removing the stash if successful<code>git stash pop [optional stash reference such as stash@{0}]</code>
  * delete a stash<code>git stash drop [optional stash reference]</code>

===== 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
