Traditionally the right way to do this has been to make a temporary commit
on the branch, i.e.

I would like to avoid such commits for unfinished content updates. Should the
storage operation be provided by the stash instead for intermediate work results?
Will it happen to forget corresponding clean-up for "temporary" changes that
might be committed too early just to get them stored?

Junio,

I'm not sure how often WIP commits become accidentally published or
left in the history, but perhaps it would be advantageous to provide a
means of specifying officially that a particular commit is in fact a
WIP commit such that no other commits can be made on top of this WIP
commit and it can't be merged with other branches or pushed or
whatever.
