About

Backup and restore what your branches, including what they point at.

Example

Install

Download a pre-built binary (installable via gh-install).

Or use rust to install:

cargo install git-branch-stash-cli

Uninstall

See the uninstall method for your installer.

Once removed, git-branch-stash leaves behind:

.git/branch-stash

Removing this is safe and will have no effect.

Getting Started

Configuring `git-branch-stash`

Protected branches: These are branches like main or v3 that git-branch-stash must not modify. git-branch-stash will also rebase local protected branches against their remote counter parts.

Run git-branch-stash --protected -v to test your config

To locally protect additional branches, run git-branch-stash --protect <glob>.
When adopting git-branch-stash as a team, you can move the protected branches from $REPO/.git/config to $REPO/.gitconfig and commit it.

Pull remote when working from a fork, where upstream is a different remote than origin, run git config --add stack.pull-remote <REMOTE> to set your remote in $REPO/.git/config.

To see the config, run git-branch-stash --dump-config -.

Why don't you just ...?

Have an idea, we'd love to hear it! There are probably git operations or workflows we haven't heard of and would welcome the opportunity to learn more.
