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

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."

When it should go quick why don't use an alias. git stash can print the
list and everyone who wants a quick stash can create an alias for this.

I vote for stash print the list, because I dropped in the pitfall.

I got caught by this default too. One vote more!
