I've started saving my stashes to branches instead.. adding a _ on the front of the branch name to remind me to delete the branch at some point

Out of curiosity, do you ever actually delete the branches? I would absolutely just end up with a number of _-prefixed branches on all my projects.

I don't allow myself to have more than 1 active stash at any given point on a project. You quickly learn to delete with no regret some code you wrote !
