Re: question concerning branches

Personally, in the cases where I can't finish a commit before I need
to switch away to another branch, my preference is to not use "git
stash", but instead to create a topic branch, and then check in a
partially completed change on the topic branch, which I can later
ammend using "git commit --amend" (or if I have multiple commits on
the topic branch, "git rebase --interactive").  This is because I can
use the commit description to leave myself some notes about what still
needs to be done before the commit can be finalized.

Errr... you are aware that you can use "git stash save <message>" (i.e. 
specify commit message for stash; well, the subject), don't you?
