It is probably more common that you want to be able to switch back to
the previous branch, than that you actually need a full stack.
So a "git checkout --previous" could be enough. Or a set of aliases
[alias]
co = !"git symbolic-ref HEAD | sed -ne 's!refs/heads/!!p' > .git/LAST ; git checkout"
pop = !"git co $(cat .git/LAST)"
