To remove a specific file from the git stash, you can use the following command:

1
git stash show -p stash@{N} -- <filename> | git apply -R


Replace stash@{N} with the stash you want to remove the file from, and with the name of the file you want to remove. This command will reverse apply the changes made to the file in the specified stash, effectively removing it from the stash.


Alternatively, you can also use the following command to remove all changes from a specific stash:

1
git stash drop stash@{N}


Replace stash@{N} with the stash you want to remove. This command will permanently delete the selected stash, including all changes stored in it.


Be sure to double-check the stash you are removing to ensure you do not lose any important changes.
