🏳️ FinderGit 0.35.0 — Stash, where you actually reach for it

Hey everyone 👋

FinderGit 0.35.0 is out. It's one small panel that got a lot better — and one bug that taught me something about git I didn't know.

🏳️ Stash… moved to the action bar, next to Fetch, Pull and Push. It belongs with them because it does what they do: it takes the whole repository, staged work included. Where it used to live, in the header above the unstaged files, it simply vanished the second you hit Stage All — which is exactly the moment you reach for it.

Stash… now sits in the action bar, with the stash list and its three per-row actions above

⏳ It tells you what it's doing, and you can stop it. The button reads "Stashing…" while it runs and turns into Stop after a few seconds, the way Fetch and Pull already did. Pop, Apply and Drop report above the rows, so you can collapse the list and still see where an action got to.

🔄 The list keeps itself current. Refresh reaches it now, and so does a stash you made in a terminal five minutes ago. It used to be read once and only notice a change if a separate counter happened to move.

🎯 And the one I'm happiest about: Pop, Apply and Drop act on the row you clicked. They used to act on a position in the list — and positions renumber the moment anything is removed. Six rounds of review to get there. The last one taught me that the stash reflog refuses a duplicate only at its very top, so the same commit stored lower down becomes a real second entry. I'd have bet against that.

What's the git thing you still do in a terminal because no app does it well? 👀
