Git stash

Ever started working on the wrong branch with Git? Use gist stash! Here is how to proceed in 3 steps:

1. Use stash to detach unstaged changes:

$ git stash

2. Change branch:

$ git checkout my-branch

3. Retrieve your changes as you left them:

git stash pop

Git stash can do much more, see its options with git stash help.
