"git stash store $stash_sha1 $message [ $error_message ]" is adequate an internal API _for now_. I however suspect that you would regret later when you need more customization. It already happened once for "git merge" when it was an internal API for "git pull" and it was painful to support saner interface and the traditional one at the same time [*1*]. [Footnote] *1* And no, don't even try to rewrite "git merge" call inside "git pull" to use the modern style with "-m <message>"; you will likely break it (I've tried once and decided it was not worth the hassle). -- 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
