It does,*provided*  you invoke the pop step with `--index`.

When `git stash push` makes a stash, it saves both the index

Why 'stash push' and 'stash pop' are asymmetric in what they do by default?
Wouldn't it make more sense to make 'stash pop' precisely revert what 
'stash push' does, and have an option '--no-index' instead?
