Right. The thing that bothers me is the data loss of:

  echo 1 >foo
  git add foo
  echo 2 >foo
  git stash
  git stash pop

The content in "1" is stashed, but gets lost on the apply, and our pop
drops the stash.

Yeah, I think this one is a non-bug. I hadn't read it carefully but the
"trailing newlines" made me think it was adding multiple extra blank
lines. But it looks like it is just the normal strbuf_complete_line, and
that is the right thing to be doing (it has _never_ been encouraged to
have a commit message that does not have a newline at all, and
I think stripspace has enforced that from day one).

As I mentioned elsewhere, I've yet to see the full results of the
hackday. Hopefully soon. :)
