Is it possible to preview stash contents in git?
git stash show will show you the files that changed in your most recent stash. You can add the -p option to show the diff.
git stash show -pIf the stash you are interested in is not the most recent one, then add the name of the stash to the end of the command:
git stash show -p stash@{2}
I'm a fan of gitk's graphical UI to visualize git repos. You can view the last item stashed with:
gitk stashYou can also use view any of your stashed changes (as listed by git stash list). For example:
gitk stash@{2}In the below screenshot, you can see the stash as a commit in the upper-left, when and where it came from in commit history, the list of files modified on the bottom right, and the line-by-line diff in the lower-left. All while the stash is still tucked away.
