Thank you for filling out a Git bug report! Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.
What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)
git stash store HEAD && git stash drop
What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)
To either fail storing HEAD or the ability to drop the stash entry, even if it wasn't created using git stash create
What happened instead? (Actual behavior)
A stash entry is created that cannot be dropped, because it's not stash-like commit.
git stash drop
fatal: 'refs/stash@{0}' is not a stash-like commitWhat's different between what you expected and what actually happened?
A corrupt entry is added to the stash and it cannot be removed, expect probably git stash clear
Anything else you want to add:
Any guidance in modifying the stash reflog so that I can remove the stash entry manually, or other suggestions are appreciated.
