I regret having applied a stash (wrong branch). How can I undo this and have my stash back to my stash list in order to apply it later on the right branch?

Also, git stash apply doesn't delete the stash like git stash pop does. So if you have committed, you could git reset --hard [last_good_commit] (if you haven't pushed) or git revert [last_good_commit] (if you have pushed) and just apply the stash again once you're on the right branch.
If you made two stashes, then just call git stash pop twice. As opposed to git stash apply , pop applies and removes the latest stash. You can also reference a specific stash, e.g.
Sometimes we may need to undo a git stash apply, maybe we didn't mean to apply it at all or we just applied it to the wrong branch. Update: I've made an easy extension to git that makes this command more easy to remember, i call it gitUndo. With that extension all you need run is: git undo stash-apply.
To retrieve changes out of the stash and apply them to the current branch you're on, you have two options: git stash apply STASH-NAME applies the changes and leaves a copy in the stash. git stash pop STASH-NAME applies the changes and removes the files from the stash.
If you haven't committed, you should just be able to git stash again, possibly with a git reset HEAD first.

Note: Running git reset --hard will delete any uncommitted code.
