Re: [PATCH 1/3] stash: add test for stash create with no files

Hi Junio,

I was just too lazy to write a cover letter, and thought these would
make sense on their own. I'll make sure to include a cover letter next
time.

I just ripped them out of my patch series on implementing stash as a
builtin[1]. Since I haven't had time, I figured I could at least get
the additional tests I wrote into the codebase.

The tests mainly expand coverage of git stash, covering a few critical
error cases that didn't have tests.
