From: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

When `git stash apply <argument>` sees an argument that consists only of
digits, it tries to be smart and interpret it as `stash@{<number>}`.

Unfortunately, an all-digit hash (which is unlikely but still possible)
is therefore misinterpreted as `stash@{<n>}` reflog.

To prevent that from happening, let's append `^0` after the stash hash,
to make sure that it is interpreted as an OID rather than as a number.
