Reproducible in a test repository with following steps:

The file is stashed correctly, though.
Tested with Git 2.16.2 on Linux and Windows.
Thanks for the bug report and the reproduction recipe. The following
patch should fix it:
Thanks, I can confirm that the misleading warning message is fixed.
What I've noticed now is that when using -u option, Git won't warn if
the pathspec is actually not matching a file. Also, an empty stash may
be created. For example:
$ git stash push -u -- nonexisting
Saved working directory and index state WIP on master: 171081d initial
import
I would probably expect to see an error message as for:
$ git stash push -- nonexisting
error: pathspec 'nonexisting' did not match any file(s) known to git.
Did you forget to 'git add'?
That said, this is no problem for us, because I know that the paths I'm
providing to "git stash push" do exist. I just wanted to point out.
