Stash Changes it Git
Introduction
In this tutorial, we will know the steps involved to stash changes in the Git source control tool. We can stash local changes to store in a safe place using Git. Stashing a change removes the change and stores it so that we can apply later or delete the changes. The local changes will need to be committed to the remote GitHub repository.
Let’s run some commands to get a better understanding. Let’s create a file and then we stash it.
// We will stash this change and file
public class StashingChanges {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("Stashed File...");
}
}
git Stash

Git stash List
To see which stashes we have stashed, we can use
$ git stash list
If we want to apply all the stashes we can use the apply command
$ git stash apply
hp@LAPTOP-3NKORD70 MINGW64 ~/SampleProject (master)
$ git stash list
stash@{0}: WIP on master: ea95ebc Merge pull request #3 from
yskumar007/git-branch-demo
hp@LAPTOP-3NKORD70 MINGW64 ~/SampleProject (master)
$ git stash apply
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.
Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
new file: src/StashingChanges.java
