Export a stash to another computer

Question

I need a way to export a stashed change to another computer.

On computer 1 I did

$ git stash save feature

I\'m trying to get the stash

Answer 1

The startup command from the original post:

git stash show -p stash@{x} > patch_file

didn't work for me (for some reason it created unusable patch files). Instead I had to:

git stash apply stash@{x}
git commit

for each stash I wanted to transfer. Then, I placed the 'parent' repo within file:/// reach of the 'child' repo, and did the following, for each stash commit:

git fetch file:///path_to_parent_git && git cherry-pick commit_sha
git reset --soft HEAD^
git stash save my_new_stash_on_child

This is more complex but did the trick for me.
