With the earlier DWIM patches, certain combination of options defaulted
to the "save" command correctly while certain equally valid combination
did not. For example, "git stash -k" were Ok but "git stash -q -k" did
not work.
This makes the logic of defaulting to "save" much simpler. If there are no
non-flag arguments, it is clear that there is no command word, and we
default to "save" subcommand. This rule prevents "git stash -q apply"
from quietly creating a stash with "apply" as the message.
This also teaches "git stash save" to reject an unknown option. This is
to keep a mistyped "git stash save --quite" from creating a stash with a
message "--quite", and this safety is more important with the new logic
to default to "save" with any option-looking argument without an explicit
comand word.

discussion, and he and Peff take all the credit; if I have introduced bugs
while reworking, they are mine.]

This adds a hunk-based mode to git-stash. You can select hunks from
the difference between HEAD and worktree, and git-stash will build a
stash that reflects these changes. The index state of the stash is
the same as your current index, and we also let --patch imply
--keep-index.
Note that because the selected hunks are rolled back from the worktree
but not the index, the resulting state may appear somewhat confusing
if you had also staged these changes. This is not entirely
satisfactory, but due to the way stashes are applied, other solutions
would require a change to the stash format.

The change makes sure a stash (given or default) exists before
checking if the working tree is dirty.
If the default stash is requested, the old message was scary and
included a 'fatal' error from rev-parse:
fatal: Needed a single revision
: no valid stashed state found
It is replaced with a friendlier 'Nothing to apply' error, similar to
'git stash branch'.
If a specific stash is specified, the 'Needed a single revision' errors
from rev-parse are suppressed.

'git stash pop' supports the '--index' option since its initial
implementation (bd56ff54, git-stash: add new 'pop' subcommand,
2008-02-22), but its documentation does not mention it explicitly.
Moreover, both the usage shown by 'git stash -h' and the synopsis
section in the man page imply that 'git stash pop' does not have an
'--index' option.
First, this patch corrects the usage and the synopsis section.
Second, the patch moves the description of the '--index' option to the
'git stash pop' section in the documentation, and refers to it from
the 'git stash apply' section. This way it follows the intentions of
commit d1836637 (Documentation: teach stash/pop workflow instead of
stash/apply, 2009-05-28), as all 'git stash pop'-related documentation
will be in one place without references to 'git stash apply'.

The referenced commit tried to fix a flaw in stash's handling of a user
supplied invalid ref. i.e. 'git stash apply fake_ref@{0}' should fail
instead of applying stash@{0}. But, it did so in a naive way by avoiding the
use of the --default option of rev-parse, and instead manually supplied the
default revision if the user supplied an empty command line. This prevented
a common usage scenario of supplying flags on the stash command line (i.e.
non-empty command line) which would be parsed by lower level git commands,
without supplying a specific revision. This should fall back to the default
revision, but now it causes an error. e.g. 'git stash show -p'
The correct fix is to use the --verify option of rev-parse, which fails
properly if an invalid ref is supplied, and still allows falling back to a
default ref when one is not supplied.
Convert stash-drop to use --verify while we're at it, since specifying
multiple revisions for any of these commands is also an error and --verify
makes it so.

apply_stash() and show_stash() each call rev-parse with
'--default refs/stash' as an argument. This option causes rev-parse to
operate on refs/stash if it is not able to successfully operate on any
element of the command line. This includes failure to supply a "valid"
revision. This has the effect of causing 'stash apply' and 'stash show'
to operate as if stash@{0} had been supplied when an invalid revision is
supplied.
e.g. 'git stash apply stash@{1}' would fall back to
'git stash apply stash@{0}'
This patch modifies these two functions so that they avoid using the
--default option of rev-parse.

"git stash -h" showed some incomplete and ugly usage information.
For example, the useful "--keep-index" option for "save" or the "--index"
option for "apply" were not shown. Also in the documentation synopsis they
were not shown, so that there is no incentive to scroll down and even see
that such options exist.
This patch improves the git-stash synopsis in the documentation by
mentioning that further options to the stash commands and then copies
this synopsis to the usage information string of git-stash.sh.
For the latter, the dashless git command string has to be inserted on the
second and the following usage lines. The code of this is taken from
git-sh-setup so that all lines will show the command string.
Note that the "create" command is not advertised at all now, because

'git stash save' saves local modifications to a new stash, and runs 'git
reset --hard' to revert them to a clean index and work tree. When the
'--keep-index' option is specified, after that 'git reset --hard' the
previous contents of the index is restored and the work tree is updated
to match the index. This option is useful if the user wants to commit
only parts of his local modifications, but wants to test those parts
before committing.
Also add support for the completion of the new option, and add an
example use case to the documentation.

So ignore the submodules' states.

Two bugs that made the command practically unusable were fixed
with this.
- A stash created with a clean index does not have any
difference between the base tree and the index tree.
Trying to apply the diff between them to the index would
error out with "No changes". Even when the user asked to
unstash with --index, do not bother with --index action if
the base tree and the index tree match.
- After successfully performing the working tree merge, the
index was reloaded from an earlier state of unstashed index
with "read-tree"; this left all the paths cache dirty. By
moving the call to git-status after this read-tree, match the
cached stat information in the index.

Earlier when we read a tree into a temporary index, we read it
