I thought that both worktree changes and index go to stash; only that changes recorded in the index are not undone in the index and worktree. > +... test, debug, perfect ... > +$ git commit > +$ git stash pop # get the remainder back And here both changes are unstashed, but since the changes that previously were only in the index are already commited, it looks as if no index changes were unstashed. The distinction is important because if you 'stash --keep-index', but then change your mind and 'reset --hard', you actually do *not* lose data because the index changes are still in the stash. Or spelled in a different way: you cannot undo the index changes and keep only the worktree changes by 'stash --keep-index', 'reset --hard', 'stash pop'. -- Hannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
