how to add unstaged + untracked file in git stash

git-stash-unstaged-untracked-work.md

To stash only unstaged + untracked files, while keeping staged changes intact, you can use:

git stash push --include-untracked --keep-index

✅ Explanation:

• --keep-index: Leaves your staged files untouched.

• --include-untracked: Includes untracked files (e.g. new files you've created but haven't added to Git yet) in the stash.

• Stashes only:

  • Unstaged changes to tracked files
  • Untracked files

🔁 To reapply the stash later:

git stash pop

⚠️ This will reapply both the unstaged changes and the untracked files that were stashed.

Let me know if you also want to stash ignored files (.gitignored) — that would use --all.
