You can try 1) git add po/es git commit -m "Your commit message" git pull --rebase git format-patch -1 # not sure about the "-1" or 2) git diff > your_saved_changes.patch # paranoia... git stash git pull git stash apply # don't know: can this fail? git stash drop # only if "apply" succeeded or 3) git diff > your_saved_changes.patch git checkout po/es git pull patch -p1 < your_saved_changes.patch If some command failes or something goes wrong, git prints an error message and usually a useful tip. "git help <command>" prints detailed infos about the specified git command ("man git-command" should do the same). But note that I'm a git newbie too...
