You fooled me by having "stash pop" in the same script after you wrote
'git checkout "$@"' to switch branches.  If you want to have per-branch
stash, that is a totally independent problem, and I'd suggest using real
refs ($GIT_DIR/refs/stashes/$branch_name) instead of the md5 hack, if that
is the motivation.
