Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Documentation/stash: remove mention of git reset --hard

From: Thomas Gummerer <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2017 20:08:02 +0000

Don't mention git reset --hard in the documentation for git stash save.
It's an implementation detail that doesn't matter to the end user and
thus shouldn't be exposed to them.
