Stash only the changes that are staged. This mode allows to easily stash-out for later reuse some changes unrelated to the current work in progress. Unlike 'stash push --patch', --staged supports using of any tool to select the changes to stash-out, including, but not limited to 'git add --interactive'. This operation that is essentially just a 'git commit', but to the stash, is somehow missed, complicating the task that is otherwise simple and natural. For example, see discussions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14759748/stashing-only-staged-changes-in-git-is-it-possible NOTE: I'm entirely unfamiliar with the code, and the implementation below is the first thing that came to my mind, without much thought.
