Git stash list with date

We are often required to pause on the work and focus on something else in a development environment. Thus, we may need to save our current work for the time being and focus on the different work.

We later would like to resume back our original work.

The stash feature of Git, provided by the command, allows us to save our changes for the work at hand temporarily.
