From: Yuri Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2021 21:16:38 GMT Subject: [feature suggestion] Improve stash descriptions Message-ID: My current stash looks like this: $ git stash list stash@{0}: WIP on main: 12c63aaa3b13 www/yt-dlp: Update 2021.04.11 -> 2021.04.22 Reported by: portscout stash@{1}: WIP on main: 140f08246898 devel/py-PeachPy: Update g20180225 -> 0.0.1 stash@{2}: WIP on main: d42e82e4a336 security/hs-cryptol: Update 2.10.0 -> 2.11.0 stash@{3}: WIP on main: 62851ab415cd dns/subfinder: Update 2.4.6 -> 2.4.7 stash@{4}: WIP on main: 4eec712dfdae math/gretl: Correct PKGNAME to be 2021a, not 2021.a to reflect how Gretl is versioned. stash@{5}: WIP on main: 725e4e9a07f0 devel/py-fypp: Update 3.0 -> 3.1 stash@{6}: WIP on main: 200eb286c368 misc/py-orange3-educational: Update 0.1.8 -> 0.4.0 stash@{7}: WIP on main: 364ab57861e2 misc/urh: Update 2.9.1 -> 2.9.2 stash@{8}: WIP on main: 52c6d02708d0 science/py-nilearn: Update 0.7.0 -> 0.7.1 stash@{9}: WIP on main: a9d5d9e05bbf New port: biology/seqkit: Cross-platform and ultrafast toolkit for FASTA/Q file manipulation stash@{10}: WIP on main: ffa307fb4dc3 games/iqpuzzle: Update 1.2.2 -> 1.2.3 stash@{11}: WIP on main: 195f2e27fd72 math/py-libpoly: Update 0.1.8 -> 0.1.9 stash@{12}: WIP on main: 4c2cc95952a6 graphics/mesa-devel: update to 21.0.b.4390 stash@{13}: WIP on main: 4c2cc95952a6 graphics/mesa-devel: update to 21.0.b.4390 stash@{14}: On main: audio/tuxguitar -- . stash@{15}: On main: math/[py-]python-igraph None of the above descriptions are relevant to actual items, for example: $ git stash show stash@{2}  devel/google-perftools/Makefile                      |  2 +-  devel/google-perftools/distinfo                      |  6 +++---  devel/google-perftools/files/patch-Makefile.am       |  4 ++--  devel/google-perftools/files/patch-src_stacktrace.cc | 11 +++++++++++  devel/google-perftools/pkg-plist                     | 12 ++++++------  5 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) - description mentions cryptol but actual items are related to perftools. My suggestion: In case all changes are grouped in one ditectory, like in my case, git should append this directory name to description: > stash@{2}: WIP on main: d42e82e4a336 security/hs-cryptol: Update 2.10.0 -> 2.11.0, all changes are in devel/google-perftools In many cases it is possible to do so. In case many directories are affected it could say "changes are in path1/dir1, path2/dir2, etc." This would be a lot better than stash items descriptions it prints now. Thank you, Yuri
