Re: [PATCH] stash clear: allow -v/--verbose to be passed

Alexander Kuleshov [off-list ref] writes:

Added new option -v/--verbose to 'git stash clear' for verbose output.

Why?

I would sort-of understand if it were "git stash clear --confirm"
that internally runs "git stash list" and then asks "Are you sure
(Y/n)?"  and then finally clears [*1*], but what value does it add
to the system to be able to see what you lost and cannot recover
anymore after the damage is done?

Note that I am not advocating adding "clear --confirm" here (that is
what I mean by "sort-of understand"); the users can do that "Do I
really want to discard these?" themselves.


[Footnote]

*1* Or perhaps copying the stash to boneyard/stash before removing
them so that they can "undo" once.
