Move your stashes from one repo to another

Move your stashes from one repo to another


This was useful for me when we created a new branch for a new major release, but were still working on our current version as well. I cloned our repo again and kept the new project on our new branch, but also wanted to get my stashes there.

Download your stashes

git stash show -p > patch

You'll have to specify your stash and name your file whatevery you want. Do this for as all your stashes, and you'll have patch files in your pwd.
