It would be great if we could stash not only the selected files, but only the selected chunks/lines inside those files, since this partial selection is already available for committing.

Thanks!

Not nearly enough love on this Feature, please implement this!

• Stash specific files by toggling them, added to the right click context menu.

Creating a new branch and then bringing the changes with you would be so nice with this feature. (No commit necessary for experimental code changes that you want to move to a safer branch)

+1 For this. Im a long time user of GitHub desktop and this really becomes useful when trying to move branches around.

This would be extremely useful.

Hilarious that this is still yet to be implemented. This is some old tech, guys. Come on now.

This is a must. Please implement this. The ability to stage specific lines and chunks as well. Thanks.

@steveward Is there any news about this issue? Would be nice to have the ability to do this in the app instead of having to use the command line for this.

I'd love this too!

Please, this would be a huge convenience!

PLEASE

Seems like GitHub Desktop is not really getting much attention. Haven't seen anything new for ages. Would make sense to have a way to see/manage stashes.

@tidy-dev Would you mind reviewing the PR #16535?
This feature would be a huge convenience.

Any updates on this feature getting added? It's been 2 years...

i wish it was here already but they really dont care about github desktop :(

This is the only feature I reeeeally feel I need on Github Desktop, it would be even better if you could create multiple stashes with custom names. This really helps when dealing with a lot of changes and you want to test out stuff by temporarily reverting some changes or sorting out tricky situations when dealing with multiple branches.

I really can't stress enough how good this would be...

Kindly incorporate this partial stash feature, this is how work is done in the real world and not all files are stashed always.

Include a button to stash the files selected, that would address this need.

How is the state of this feature? do we have an ETA or something?

See also:

• Apply stash from other branch on current #13156
• Github Desktop does not seem to support multiple stashes. #12699
• more helpful text when restoring a stash is disabled in stash diff viewer #7395

We need the feature to stash Selected Changes only, would make it way more easier to stash some files, and bring the rest with you to another branch.

Is this feature still actively being developed or has it been lost in the tide of backlog, because I would love this to be a feature.

come on, do this already!

Please add to stash selected files in github desktop atleast.

Definitely need to be able to stash selected files, and ideally multiple stashes

Instead of adding a '+1' comment (please stop doing that. Instead use the reaction buttons on the OP), I will offer a workaround:

• Commit the changes you don't want to stash
• Hit Stash (Cmd-shift-S on Mac)
• Undo the commit using the Undo button in the bottom of the side panel

Still this should definitely already been added. How hard can it be to limit the stash action to the files selected via their checkboxes.

Related feature - it also would be nice if there will be an option to discard specific files / chunks from stash instead of discarding the stash entirely. Current workaround is to (commit current changes), restore, discard and stash again, (undo last commit).
