This is a plain FUD, isn't it?  The first Oops should not happen these

Blah.  I didn't know follow the development over the past 3 weeks well
enough, sorry for the noise.  I'm glad that this was improved.

But the original point by Sebastian hasn't been answered.  He wanted to
make the command list the stash without arguments.

This was discussed already in the early days of stash and there indeed
was a suggestion to do so (I think I sided with that), but the users did
not want it.  IIRC, the argument went like: "when I say 'stash', that is
because I want a quick and immediate way to stash, and I do not want a
list.  If I do not have to have a quick way, I would create a temporary
commit on the current branch, or switch to a temporary branch and commit
there."
