How do I stash only one file out of multiple files that have changed?


How do I stash only one of the multiple changed files on my branch?


Solution

  • git stash push -p -m "my commit message"
    

    -p let's you select the hunks that should be stashed; whole files can be selected as well.

    You'll be prompted with a few actions for each hunk:

       y - stash this hunk
       n - do not stash this hunk
       q - quit; do not stash this hunk or any of the remaining ones
       a - stash this hunk and all later hunks in the file
       d - do not stash this hunk or any of the later hunks in the file
       g - select a hunk to go to
       / - search for a hunk matching the given regex
       j - leave this hunk undecided, see next undecided hunk
       J - leave this hunk undecided, see next hunk
       k - leave this hunk undecided, see previous undecided hunk
       K - leave this hunk undecided, see previous hunk
       s - split the current hunk into smaller hunks
       e - manually edit the current hunk
       ? - print help
