I could do that, but doesn't that mean create_stash() would have to have a whole while loop and case statement just to parse the two options? Because that seems a little overkill for something that is only called from 2 places. Is there some nice compact way of doing the parsing I'm missing?

I could also remove parameter passing part and just leave it as a global like the --patch option does. ;-)
