What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)

❯ git checkout -b branch/with/slash
Switched to a new branch 'branch/with/slash'
❯ echo "foobar" > foobar.txt
❯ git stash
Saved working directory and index state WIP on slash: 41dc5da git:
update .gitconfig

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)

❯ git stash list

I can reproduce the issue using this reproducer:
mkdir test && cd test &&
git init &&

# make initial commit first, since git stash requires it
echo "./" > slashdot &&
git commit -m "slashdot" &&

# stash WIP
git checkout -b slash/dot &&
echo "slashdot" >> slashdot &&
git stash push -m "slashdot"
Note that when stashing, the message says "Saved working directory and 
index state On dot: slashdot" although we are currently on `slash/dot` 
branch.
