If you just want to get rid of the last commit

  git reset HEAD^

will remove the commit but keep your working directory untouched. In
such a workflow I find it easier to start the new commit from zero than
from the stashed stuff.

By the way. You might also take a look at the command

  git stash

which is especially crafted for saving work in progress.
