 Git Stash Changes


This option is used to stash the changes in the current working directory away.

Syntax:

git stash [option]

Example:

Check the current status of files in your project using the git status command. The below output shows that one file is modified and 2 files are newly added.

rahul@tecadmin:/app$ git status -s 

 M users.txt
?? config.php
?? login.html

Run git stash in your project. This will current working directory and index state. You can again run git status and you will find that the modified file is missing from the list.

rahul@tecadmin:/app$ git stash 

Saved working directory and index state WIP on master: b62a88d Update README.md
HEAD is now at b62a88d Update README.md

rahul@tecadmin:/app$ git status -s 

?? config.php
