After popping the remaining part, you would "git add -p" the next batch, the same "stash save -k-i" to save the remaining bits away, and continue. Will queue. BUT It is very likely that in this workflow you would sometimes find that what you staged (and left in the working tree after "save -k-i") is faulty and you need to tweak it in place to make it into a good enough shape for committing. The example probably should talk about what happens. Editing, testing and committing is fine, but then what? Will the "pop" wipe that unplanned change you made after "save -k-i" out? (the answer is no and this is safe, but the reader of the documentaiton needs it explained) Also this may be a good way to split an existing commit into five during a "rebase -i" session, and the example in the documentation might want to talk about it in that larger picture. > Documentation/git-stash.txt | 5 +++-- > 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/git-stash.txt b/Documentation/git-stash.txt > index df26901..bf241da 100644 > --- a/Documentation/git-stash.txt > +++ b/Documentation/git-stash.txt > @@ -201,9 +201,10 @@ $ git add --patch foo > $ git stash save --keep-index > $ build && run tests > $ git commit -m 'First part' > -$ git stash apply > +$ git stash pop > +... repeat above five steps until one commit remains ... > $ build && run tests > -$ git commit -a -m 'Second part' > +$ git commit foo -m 'Remaining parts' > ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
