I completed my post-graduation in 2013 in the engineering field. Engineering is the application of science and math to solve problems. Engineers figure out how things work and find practical uses for scientific discoveries. Scientists and inventors often get the credit for innovations that advance the human condition, but it is engineers who are instrumental in making those innovations available to the world. I love pet animals such as dogs, cats, etc.

Can you answer this question?

In Visual Studio 2022, stashing changes is typically done using Git. Stashing allows you to save your local changes temporarily so that you can switch branches or perform other operations without committing the changes. Here's how you can stash changes in Visual Studio 2022:

Using Team Explorer:

Open Team Explorer:

  • Open Visual Studio 2022.
  • Go to View > Team Explorer to open the Team Explorer pane.

Go to Changes:

  • In Team Explorer, navigate to the "Changes" tab.

Stash Changes:

  • Under the "Changes" tab, you'll see a "Stash" section.
  • Enter a name for your stash in the "Message" field.
  • Click the "Stash" button.

Verify Stash:

  • You can verify that your changes are stashed by checking the "Stashes" section in Team Explorer.

Using Git Command Line:

Alternatively, if you prefer using the Git command line, you can open the Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio or any terminal of your choice and use the following commands:

# Stash changes
git stash save "Your stash message"

Remember to replace "Your stash message" with a meaningful message for your stash.

Using Visual Studio Code:

If you're using Visual Studio Code instead of Visual Studio 2022, the process is similar:

  1. Open the Source Control view.
  2. Click on the three dots (...) to open the overflow menu.
  3. Choose "Stash Changes."
  4. Enter a message for the stash and click "Stash."

Remember that stashing is a way to temporarily store changes, and you can later apply these changes or create a branch from a stash if needed.
