[PATCH v9 7/7] git-stash: use update-ref --create-reflog instead of creating files

From: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com>
Date: Jul 21, 2015, 15:45 UTC
Message-ID: <1437493504-3699-8-git-send-email-dturner@twopensource.com>
In-Reply-To: <1437493504-3699-1-git-send-email-dturner@twopensource.com>

This is in support of alternate ref backends which don't necessarily store reflogs as files.
