I think that people will use this a lot with the pull command and some
accidents will happen.  I am of the opinion that the semantics of this
command must be  changed.
Additionally, having "git stash [command]" and "git stash [argument]"
mixed together seems strange. One suggestion would be:

    git stash store/add/create [stash-name]
    git stash apply [stash-name]
    git stash clear <stash-name>  (accepts wildcards but no empty args)
    ...
