# Include A Message With Your Stashed Changes
|
||||
|
||||
If you were to quickly stash some changes, you end up with a stash reference
|
||||
that git would attach a little context to, such as the latest commit SHA and
|
||||
the first line of its commit message.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git stash list
|
||||
stash@{0}: WIP on master: 6766419 Add link to source for latest TIL
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Often this won't provide you the needed context to return to your stash and
|
||||
pick up where you left off even days later.
|
||||
|
||||
You can customize the message of a stash with the `-m` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git stash push -m 'made some changes'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When you view your stash list, you'll see your custom message.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git stash list
|
||||
stash@{0}: On master: made some changes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And hopefully that's the context you need to hit the ground running.
|
||||
|
||||
See `man git-stash` for more details.
