+Saving selected files to stash::
+
+You can use `git stash save --keep-index` to put only selected files
+into the stash. Let's suppose the files A, B, C and D are modified and
+you want to stash only C and D:
++
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+$ git status			# Verify what's modified
+$ git add A B			# ...not these
+$ git stash save --keep-index   # ...but stash all the others
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
 Recovering stashes that were cleared/dropped erroneously::
 
 If you mistakenly drop or clear stashes, they cannot be recovered
