Re: [PATCH] stash: clean untracked files before reset

Nicolas Morey-Chaisemartin [off-list ref] writes:
If calling git stash -u on a repo that contains a file that is not
ignored any more due to a current modification of the gitignore file,
this file is stashed but not remove from the working tree.
This is due to git-stash first doing a reset --hard which clears the
.gitignore file modification and the call git clean, leaving the file
untouched.
This causes git stash pop to fail due to the file existing.

This patch simply switches the order between cleaning and resetting
and adds a test for this usecase.

These two lines are the other way around; a report/finding was made
and then you wrote a fix, which is signed-off by you.

I tried to think of a scenario where it is more desirable to use the
contents of the .gitignore file before modification gets stash away,
but I came up empty, so let's hope that this change will not make
50% people happier while making the other 50% sadder.
