Using Stash

Stash allows developers to store the modifications, including both staged and un-staged changes, in a safe place so that they can switch to a clean working directory without losing their work. It acts as a temporary storage for their changes, enabling them to move between tasks or branches seamlessly. Stashing is particularly useful when developers are not yet ready to commit their changes or when they want to work on a different task without the interference of their current modifications. 

The following points will explain the process of using stash effectively:

1. Stashing Changes: A common use case for stashing changes is when users make changes to the working directory that are not yet committed but need to fetch changes from another developer in the remote repository. 

2. Viewing the Stash: User can view the contents of the stash at any time by using the git stash list command. Users can also view the stash graphically by reviewing the Revision Graph diagram.

3. Applying the Stash Changes: When ready, users can restore the stash into the current staged snapshot and then commit the changes including the stashed changes.
