```
ˋˋˋ
% git stash -ku
error: unknown option for 'stash save': -ku
(...)
% git stash -k -u
Saved working directory and index state WIP on master: (...)
(...)
ˋˋˋ

In other parts of git, clumping (as defined by [GNU Short Option Style
guide](https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/Short-Options.html#SEC37))
works, for example:


-v for verbose, -m for message:
ˋˋˋ
% git commit -vm 'xd'
[master a560195] xd
 1 file changed, 91 insertions(+), 51 deletions(-)
 rewrite spec/actions/hosting/meta_machine/upgrade_plan_spec.rb (96%)
ˋˋˋ
-q for quiet, -m for message
ˋˋˋ
% git commit -qm 'xd'
(no output)
ˋˋˋ
