I just had a very quick look over the PDF, meaning only looking at pictures and headlines.

Just nitpicking about one thing: I was wondering if "Stash Queue" is the right headline, because I usually use

	git stash save	# oh, an interrupt, have to do something else now

and after this is done:

	git stash pop	# back to the real work

And if you are interrupted in an interrupt, you want the last stash being the first one to pop, which is a stack-like (last in, first out) behavior.

Of course, there may be cases where you want the queuing behavior that you advertise in the book. I use it rather seldomly. But perhaps it is just me :-)

Regards,
  Stephan
