Hi,

`git stash <command> <n>` where n is a number used to work until 2.21.*. It doesn't work in 2.22.0.

Bisection points to:
dc7bd382b1063303f4f45d243bff371899285acb is the first bad commit

    stash: convert show to builtin
which I guess makes sense :)

Yup, this is definitely a bug. I think it only affected 'git stash show' however, and not other stash subcommands. If not, could you point me to where else you saw this bug?

Below is a patch that should fix it.

Subject: [PATCH] stash: fix show referencing stash index

In the conversion of 'stash show' to C in dc7bd382b1 ("stash: convert show to builtin", 2019-02-25), 'git stash show <n>', where n is the index of a stash got broken, if n is not a file or a valid revision by itself.

'stash show' accepts any flag 'git diff' accepts for changing the output format. Internally we use 'setup_revisions()' to parse these command line flags. Currently we pass the whole argv through to 'setup_revisions()', which includes the stash index.

As the stash index is not a valid revision or a file in the working tree in most cases however, this 'setup_revisions()' call (and thus the whole command) ends up failing if we use this form of 'git stash show'.

Instead of passing the whole argv to 'setup_revisions()', only pass the flags (and the command name) through, while excluding the stash reference. The stash reference is parsed (and validated) in 'get_stash_info()' already.

This separate parsing also means that we currently do produce the correct output if the command succeeds.

If ref is valid, 'n < N' was probably meant here.

Yes, indeed.  Thanks!

I confirmed pop, apply, branch, and drop are not affected.
