Subject: 24.0.50; Add vc-git-stash to keymap
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2011 03:20:25 +0530

Please add vc-git-stash to keymap[1]. I suggest the following binding

S     => vc-git-stash
C-u S => vc-git-stash-snapshot

1. I am not sure why the stash command keys are capitalized. Pressing
   SHIFT seems a needless overhead to me. IMHO, they should all be
   lowercased.

2. I need a way to create a stash or a snapshot when there are ZERO
   snapshots. This is currently not possible. May be the "Stash : "
   header line[2] could be decorated with the needed keymap decorations.

   My 2 cents follows: Speaking of keymaps, the stash operations seem to
   be orthogonal to regular vc-dir operations. Elsewhere there were
   discussions about applying a series of stashes to work area -
   implying some a potential need for marking and reordering stash
   lines. What this essentially means is that stash operations are
   "global"/"set" operations in a *vc-dir* and accordingly they deserve
   a prefix of their own (in addition to the current "local,
   this-stash-only" keymap bindings.)
