A single step short-cut, done in any way other than a more explicit way such as "git reset --hard && git stash apply" (e.g. "git stash reset-and-apply" or "git stash apply --force") that makes it crystal clear that the user _is_ discarding, has a risk of encouraging users to form a dangerous habit of invoking the short-cut without thinking and leading to "oops, I didn't mean that!". -- 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
