Undo a git stash

Question

I just did a stash in a project that I haven't commit. Is there a way to go back to the state before I stashed? How could I do this? I've closed the terminal and my laptop is shut down. I've done some researched and it seems there's no way to do this.

Answer 1

You can just run:

git stash pop 

and it will unstash your changes.

If you want to preserve the state of files (staged vs. working), use

git stash apply --index 

Answer 2

git stash list to list your stashed changes.

git stash show to see what n is in the below commands.

git stash apply to apply the most recent stash.

git stash apply stash@{n} to apply an older stash.
