Is there any feature in git to perform and auto stash apply/pop when
trying to do a merge/rebase in a dirty working dir? This would save
some keystrokes from time-to-time, and make it easier for new users
unfamiliar with git.

And when switching branches too.

Isn't that what "git checkout -m" does?

The problem with checkout -m is that you get only a single shot at
conflict resolution.  'git stash pop' does not drop the stash in the
case of a conflict, so you can try again.
