Common Mistakes

Using 'commit' instead of 'stash' saves changes permanently.

Using 'push' sends changes to remote, not temporary save.

Using 'pull' updates your local repo, not saving changes.

The git stash command saves your current changes temporarily so you can work on something else without committing.
