- stash: introduce 'stash save --keep-index' option
One weakness of our "partial commit" workflow support used to be that t=
he
user can incrementally build what is to be committed in the index but t=
hat
state cannot be tested as a whole in the working tree. This allows you=
to
temporarily stash the remaining changes in the working tree so that the
index state before running "stash save --keep-index" can be seen in the
working tree to be tested and then committed. A recommended workflow t=
o
use after that commit is made needs to be documented (and support needs=
to
be added if necessary).

Creates a new branch out of the stashed state, after returning from the
interrupt that forced you to create the stash in the first place.
* jc/grafts (Wed Jul 2 17:14:12 2008 -0700) 1 commit
- Ignore graft during object transfer [broken wrt shallow clones]
Cloning or fetching from a repository from grafts did not send objects
that are hidden by grafts, but the commits in the resulting repository =
do
need these to pass fsck. This fixes object transfer to ignore grafts.
Another fix is needed to git-prune so that it ignores grafts but treats
commits that are mentioned in grafts as reachable.
