Same here.

How about simply committing/stashing your changes in advance?
Or using `git pull --rebase', or `git fetch', or `git remote update', ... ?

A more flexible solution might be to add some pre/post-* hooks,

(add-hook 'notmuch-pre-pull-hook
(lambda() (ignore-errors (magit-stash-snapshot))))
#+end_src
