Save file-changes without committing anything.
Change a file:
```sh
file=README.md
fortune >> ${file}
git diff
git stash save
```
List which stashes you have:
```sh
git stash list
stash@{1}: WIP on master: c21f102 init git
```
Make a new file, then stash it:
```sh
otherfile=file.log
fortune > ${otherfile}
git add ${otherfile}
stashname=logfile
git stash save ${stashname}
```
Now you can see two stashed changes, and the most recent has a name:
```sh
git stash list
stash@{0}: On master: logfile
stash@{1}: WIP on master: c21f102 init git
```
You can delete a stash by referring to its index number, or name (if it has one).
```sh
choice=1
git stash drop ${choice}
choice=${stashname}
git stash drop ${choice}
```
Or just run `git stash drop` to remove the most recent (labelled `{0}`).
Return stashed changes with an index number (or the most recent).
```sh
git stash pop ${choice}
```
Delete all stashes:
```sh
git stash clear
```
