How to list stashes in Git
Thursday, November 13, 2025
Listing stashes in Git displays all saved stash entries with their descriptions and reference indices for easy identification and management.
With over 25 years of experience in software development and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve used stash listing extensively when managing multiple work streams and experimental changes simultaneously.
From my expertise, the most useful approach is using git stash list to view all stashes with their reference numbers and optional descriptions.
This command provides essential visibility into temporarily saved work for efficient stash management and retrieval.
