But this isn't correct any more, is it? You unconditionally shift off
arguments when you see something of the form -*, even if what you shift
is not what you're currently looking at.
For example, without this patch:
$ g stash apply stash@{0} --index
On branch next
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/next' by 41 commits.
(use "git push" to publish your local commits)
[blah blah]
but with this patch:
$ g stash apply stash@{0} --index
--index is not valid reference
Granted, git-stash is extremely inconsistent in its handling of options.
For example, 'git stash save foo -k' does _not_ treat -k as an option.
If you set out to unify this (not just randomly (un)break one
subroutine) I'd be all for it.
