Alexander Romanenko commented on NETBEANS-1369:
-----------------------------------------------

Its a fundamental version control workflow. If trust it and it fails, work is 
lost.

Consider:
 * You are on feature branch with work in progress code.
 * Need to do a bug fix, not ready to commit WIP code. Or not even a bug, just 
need to see for any reason how the code works without current modifications. So 
you stash the changes.
 * Do whatever needs done on clean version.
 * Trying to restore WIP code from stash to go back to original task. It fails. 
I lose work.

The scary part is, I cannot reproduce it today and I am not sure whats 
different in the test netcat project of that day.  Were you able to reproduce 
it?

>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: versioncontrol - Code
>    Affects Versions: 10.0
>            Reporter: Alexander Romanenko
>            Priority: Blocker
>
> [NetCAT specification 
> |http://netbeans-vm.apache.org/synergy/client/app/#/title/%255Bvcs%255D_git/]
>  Test Suite 5.2 and 5.3
> Attempt to unshelve, right after shelving fails with "The patch cannot be 
> applied to the selected context"
> Also, first time I tried it, it kept on trying to unshelve against my 
> operating system user profile's temporary directory. After trying a few 
> times, it just started failing.
> Also, the wording of initial stashing dialogue is not clear:
>  "You may shelve changes instead using git stash"
>  Is it supposed to be "instead OF using git stash" ?
