Thanks Junio and Peff for comments on the last round. Changes since then:
- removed mention of the "new form" of git stash create from the Documentation. - Changed documentation for git stash without a verb, mentioning stash -p now being an alias for git stash push -p and that -- can be used as disambiguation for for pathspecs - Fixed ${1-...} which should have been ${1?...} - Removed unused new_style variable from create_stash, which was a leftover from perious rounds.
