Aside from the documentation and usage lines, this one is actually independent of the other two, and I think makes sense regardless of what happens.

Should this actually be "git stash save --invalid-option", since it is really testing the actual save option parsing, and not the behavior to automatically push options to "git stash save"?

Other than that, patch looks good.
