FWIW, I agree with j6t. Quoting the part you left at the bottom of your message (by the way, please do not top-post on this list. You quote what others said first, and then you write your response below that): >> So, IMHO, there is zero reason to upgrade stashes so that they can >> achieve the exact same thing that we can already do with branches. >> >> (Hence, if indeed you do share your half-finsihed work ten times a day, >> then, please, by all means, use the right tool for the task: put your >> work on a branch, not in a stash.) All of the three you listed (discovery, transfer, clean-up) become easier to work with if you used branches, branches have always had good support for these three (and other) operations, and I do not see a good reason to add a parallel support to do something similar.
