# Git Stash

----------

We use git stash to store our changes when they are not ready to be committed
and we need to change to a different branch.

- Stash:

    ```
    git stash save
    # or
    git stash
    # or with a message
    git stash save "this is a message to display on the list"
    ```

- Apply stash to keep working on it:

    ```
    git stash apply
    # or apply a specific one from out stack
    git stash apply stash@{3}
    ```

----------

- Every time we save a stash it gets stacked so by using list we can see all our
  stashes.

    ```
    git stash list
    # or for more information (log methods)
    git stash list --stat
    ```

- To clean our stack we need to manually remove them:

    ```
    # drop top stash
    git stash drop
    # or
    git stash drop <name>
    # to clear all history we can use
    git stash clear
    ```

----------

- Apply and drop on one command:

    ```
      git stash pop
    ```

- If we meet conflicts we need to either reset or commit our changes.
- Conflicts through `pop` will not drop a stash afterwards.

----------
