In message <4F26DF7B.7050109@xxxxxxxxxx>, Phillip Susi writes: git stash makes two commits, one that has no changes from the base, and one to stash your changes in. Why? git-stash can make up to three commits: working directory (of files git knows about) index working directory (of files git does not know about) The third commit only appears if you use --all or --include-untracked. Most likely you do not use -u/-a and your index has not been touched yet, so you only see two commits, of which one is empty. -Seth Robertson -- 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
