[PATCH v2 3/3] stash: keep untracked files intact in stash -k

From
Thomas Gummerer <t.gummerer@gmail.com>
Date
Mar 21, 2017, 22:12 UTC
Message-ID

Currently when there are untracked changes in a file "one" and in a file "two" in the repository and the user uses:

    git stash push -k one

all changes in "two" are wiped out completely. That is clearly not the intended result. Make sure that only the files given in the pathspec are changed when git stash push -k <pathspec> is used.
