Hello, thank you for the info.
It seems like neither worked:
export GIT_TEST_STASH_USE_BUILTIN=no git config --global stash.usebuiltin no
The untracked files are still not stashed with `git stash create -u [some-argument]`, but are stashed successfully with `git stash push -u`, so unless I'm doing something wrong, this also doesn't help, sadly.
Also, if there are no modified changes (only untracked ones), then `git stash create [-u [some-arg]]` (the non-builtin stash) will not even give you a commit object's name, thus it probably does not create the commit object at all.
Also, the manual page of git-stash(1) not mention the `--include-untracked` option - this is why I posted in the first place.
$ man git-stash ... git stash create [<message>] git stash store [-m|--message <message>] [-q|--quiet] <commit> ...

Is there any chance to
* get the builtin stash to support `--include-untracked` option?
* figure out if the legacy stash also works as intended with the `-u [some-arg]` option * when there aren't any changes, except untracked/ignored ones, the commit object doesn't seem to be created (printed) at all * why does it even require an argument?
* update the manual page for git-stash(1)
* check if everything's fine with `git stash store` too, just in case:D
Is there anything else I need to do to get this issue reported or are you guys taking care of it?
