Actually, I only wanted to change the stash list behavior (but better should
have used $(git config --get pager.stash.list) for that). Unfortunately, it
is impossible then to force the pager with --paginate again.

Yours surely is a far better approach, although it only can handle the main
command (stash), not the sub-command (list), but this is totally in
accordance with everything else in git.

With "pager.stash false" (which would then require --paginate for a lot of
stash commands), I found that a paginated output of 'git -p stash show -p'
loses the diff colors, but that seems unrelated to your patch. It still is
strange though.
