To save the current state to a stash with a description we can remember at a later point in time, use the following command:
$ git stash save 'Updates to foo' Saved working directory and index state On master: Updates to foo
Our stash list now looks like the following:
$ git stash list
stash@{0}: On master: Updates to foo
stash@{1}: WIP on master: 2302181 Update foo
We can change bar and create a new stash:
$ echo "Another change" >> bar
$ git stash save 'Made another change to bar'
Saved working directory and index state On master: Made another change to bar
$ git stash list
stash@{0}: On master: Made another change to bar
stash@{1}: On master: Updates to foo
stash@{2}: WIP on master: 2302181 Update foo
We can apply the stashes ...
