 Stash changes 

 1. Stash your changes 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 git stash push -m "My local changes" 

 

 

 

 

 push → saves your uncommitted changes to the stash stack. 

 

 

 -m "message" → lets you label the stash so you know what it is later. 

 

 

 Now your working directory is clean. 

 

 2. Pull the latest code (optional but recommended) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 git pull origin main

 

 

 

 

 origin → the name of your remote (default is usually origin ). 

 

 

 main → replace with your actual branch (could be master , develop , etc.). 

 

 

 This ensures you’re up to date before pushing. 

 

 

 

 3. Push your branch 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 git push origin main

 

 

 

 

 Sends your local commits to the remote repository. 

 

 

 

 4. Re-apply your stashed changes (if you want them back) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 git stash pop

 

 

 

 

 This re-applies the last stashed set of changes and removes it from the stash list. 

 

 

 If you want to keep the stash around, use git stash apply instead of pop .
