Re: Behaviour of 'git stash show' when a stash has untracked files

I sketched out a possible solution in:

though I share your concerns over whether people would be annoyed to see
the existing "stash show" output changed.

Forgot about that one.  I sometimes do "stash show -p | apply", so
changing what is included without any option would be annoying, and
not having an option to restore the original behaviour would be
doubly irritating.  

Perhaps "stash show [--[untracked|index|worktree]]" to show only
one, without the "==> I am this variant <==" label, would be
workable, and with no option we would do --worktree that is the
traditional output.

In addition "stash show --all" could be the output in your earlier
patch.  I like the way it uses the '.' pathspec to squelch the
entire thing when there is no change ;-)

Thanks.
