While working on a repository, it's often helpful to stash the changes
of a single or multiple files, and leave others alone. Unfortunately
git currently offers no such option. git stash -p can be used to work
around this, but it's often impractical when there are a lot of changes
over multiple files.
Allow 'git stash push' to take pathspec to specify which paths to stash.

only <message> does not trigger this action to prevent a misspelled

+When pathspec is given to 'git stash push', the new stash records the
+modified states only for the files that match the pathspec. The index
+entries and working tree files are then rolled back to the state in
+HEAD only for these files, too, leaving files that do not match the
+pathspec intact.

If the `--keep-index` option is used, all changes already added to the
index are left intact.
