I do agree that the work recorded in the stash entries tend to be pretty much unrelated to the work I was doing on the branch (hence the theme of the base commit). After all, if they are related, you're more likely not keeping the work in the stash entries---you'd rather be making completed commit on the branch. However, I find that the subject of the base commit the stashed work was derived from works well as a memory aid to recall what I was working on when the stash entry was created. So "doesn't really describe" is correct, but because stash is by design a local thing, it is not a failure that it "doesn't really describe"---the purpose of the message is to be something easily generated and help jog your memory later. Having said that ... > `git stash list` accepts the options from `git log`, so you can change > look at its manpage to find other options that show the information > that you want. ... this is an excellent suggestion. Thanks.
