If one is on a Windows machine and in PowerShell, one needs to quote the argument such as:

git stash apply "stash@{0}"

...or to apply the changes and remove from the stash:

git stash pop "stash@{0}"

Otherwise without the quotes you might get this error:

fatal: ambiguous argument 'stash@': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

git Stash list   List will show all stashed items eg stash  0   stash  1      stash  n   Then select the number n which denotes stash  n   git stash apply n   for example  git stash apply 1   will apply that particular stashed changes to the current branch

The keys into the stash are actually the stash  n  items on the left  So try    git stash apply stash  0     note that in some shells you need to quote  stash  0    like zsh  fish and powershell    Since version 2 11  it s pretty easy  you can use the N stack number instead of using stash  n   So now instead of using   git stash apply  stash  n     You can type   git stash apply n   To get list of stashes   git stash list   In fact stash  0  is a revision in git that you can switch to    but git stash apply     should figure out how to DTRT to apply it to your current location

Since version 2 11  it s pretty easy  you can use the N stack number instead of saying  stash  n    So now instead of using   git stash apply  stash  n     You can type   git stash apply n     For example  in your list   stash  0   WIP on design  f2c0c72    Adjust Password Recover Email stash  1   WIP on design  f2c0c72    Adjust Password Recover Email stash  2   WIP on design  eb65635    Email Adjust stash  3   WIP on design  eb65635    Email Adjust   If you want to apply stash  1  you could type   git stash apply 1     Otherwise  you can use it even if you have some changes in your directory since 1 7 5 1  but you must be sure the stash won t overwrite your working directory changes if it does you ll get an error   error  Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge          file Please commit your changes or stash them before you merge    In versions prior to 1 7 5 1  it refused to work if there was a change in the working directory     Git release notes    Release Notes 2 11      The user always has to say  stash   N   when naming a single element   in the default location of the stash  i e  reflogs in refs stash   The    git stash  command learned to accept  git stash apply 4  as a   short-hand for  git stash apply stash  4      Release Notes 1 7 5 1      git stash apply  used to refuse to work if there was any change in the   working tree  even when the change did not overlap with the change the   stash recorded

Just making simple to understand for beginners    Check your git stash list with below command    git stash list   And then apply with below command   git stash apply stash  n    For example  I am applying my latest stash latest is always index  0  on top of the stash list      git stash apply stash  0

User · Answer

To apply a stash and remove it from the stash list  run   git stash pop stash  n    To apply a stash and keep it in the stash cache  run   git stash apply stash  n

User · Answer

To view your recent work and what branch it happened on run git stash list  then select the stash to apply and use only number  git stash apply n  Where n  in the above sample  is that number corresponding to the Work In Progress
