git-share

A simple tool to backup, share & restore git stashes

Why?

  • Needed to format my work's laptop and had ~10 stashes didn't want to loose.
  • Sometimes I could use a tool like this to share stashes between work-home.

Install

  • The tool requires git>=1.8
  • Just place git-share in a place PATH accesible so you can run it as a git command.

Features

  • Works with submodules
  • Can handle conflicts

Usage

  1. git share stash backup [DIR] backup all stashes to DIR or default ./git-share_stash (@origin_machine/git_project)
  2. Share the directory full of stashes!
  3. git share stash restore [DIR] restore all stashes from DIR or default ./git-share_stash (@target_machine/git_project)

Things you may want to consider

  • The tool will restore the stash over the current branch and not the original one, so you may have conflicts.
  • The tool won't create paths recursively at the provided DIR, so make sure the parent of you DIR exists.
