See What’s in a Stash without Applying It?
To see what's in a stash without applying it, you can use the git stash show command. This command displays the changes that are currently stashed. By default, it shows a summary of the changes made to files in the stash.
Here's how you can use it:
git stash show
This command will display a summary of changes made to files in the most recent stash. If you have multiple stashes, you can specify which stash to show by providing its index:
git stash show stash@{<index>}
Replace <index> with the index of the stash you want to show, starting from 0 for the most recent stash.
Viewing Detailed Changes:
If you want to see detailed changes, including the contents of added or modified files, you can use the -p or --patch option:
git stash show -p
This command will display a unified diff of the changes made to files in the stash.
Note:
- The
git stash showcommand only shows information about changes in the stash; it does not apply or remove the stash from the stack. - Viewing the stash with
git stash showallows you to review the changes before deciding whether to apply or drop the stash. - If you want to apply the stash, you can use
git stash apply. If you want to remove the stash from the stack without applying it, you can usegit stash drop.
