# Stashing

Stashing is when you want to record the current state of the working directory and the index, but want to go back to a clean working directory.

The command saves your local modifications away and reverts the working directory to match the `HEAD` commit.

* **`git stash`**

  -Store modified and staged changes.<br>
* **`git stash save "comment"`**

  -Store modified and staged changes with a comment.<br>
* **`git stash list`**

  -List all stash<br>
* **`git stash apply`**

  -Re-apply the stash without deleting it.<br>
* **`git stash pop stash@{n}`** \
  -Re-apply the stash at index n, then delete it from the stash list.

  &#x20;where n = index of stash.

  &#x20;omit stash@{n} to pop the most recent stash.<br>
* **`git stash show stash@{n}`**

  -Delete stash at index n

  &#x20;where n = index of stash<br>
* **`git stash drop stash@{n}`**\
  -Delete stash at index n.

  where n = index of stash

  omit stash@{n} to delete the most recent stash.<br>
