Stash only the changes that are staged. This mode allows to easily stash-out for later reuse some changes unrelated to the current work in progress. Unlike 'stash push --patch', --staged supports use of any tool to select the changes to stash-out, including, but not limited to 'git add --interactive'. Signed-off-by: Sergey Organov <sorganov@xxxxxxxxx> --- This operation that is essentially just a 'git commit', but to the stash rather than to the current branch, is somehow missed, complicating the task that is otherwise simple and natural.
