SYNOPSIS

git freeze

DESCRIPTION

git freeze works a lot like git stash, in that it stores the current changes in your working copy and index somewhere. Unlike git stash, git freeze stores those changes on your current branch. This effectively allows you to pause development of a branch, work on something else, and then come back to exactly the same working state later (by running git thaw).

git freeze will make up to 2 commits on your branch. A commit with the message FREEZE.indexed will contain all changes which you’ve added to your index (like with git add, git mv, git rm, etc.). A commit with the message FREEZE.unindexed will contain all changes which were not in your index at the time you ran git freeze (freshly modified files, new files, etc.).
