See what's in a stash without applying it [duplicate]

This question already has answers here: Is it possible to preview stash contents in git? (17 answers) Closed 2 years ago.

I see here you can apply/unapply a stash and even create a new branch off of a stash. Is it possible to simply see what is inside the stash without actually applying it?

He's not calling stash an application, he's referring to the act of applying the stash. Unclear terminology aside, the question is the same.
To get colorized diff output: git stash show -p stash@{1} >~/.diff && vim ~/.diff (doesn't have to be vim. any text editor as long as your text editor has syntax highlighting support for diff output).
@TrevorBoydSmith or just git stash show -p stash@{1} | view -
a little weird observation, on centos-7 view is aliased to vi and man view displays the man page for vim. (i'll have to change my .bashrc to use your new trick (it's better than my old way IMO).)

From man git-stash (which can also be obtained via git help stash):

The modifications stashed away by this command can be listed with git stash list, inspected with git stash show, and ...

show [<stash>]
    Show the changes recorded in the stash as a diff between the stashed
    state and its original parent. When no <stash> is given, shows the
    latest one. By default, the command shows the diffstat, but it will
    accept any format known to git diff (e.g., git stash show -p stash@{1}
    to view the second most recent stash in patch form).

Note: the -p option generates a patch, as per git-diff documentation.

List the stashes:

git stash list

Show the files in the most recent stash:

git stash show

Show the changes of the most recent stash:

git stash show -p

Show the changes of the named stash:

git stash show -p stash@{1}

One very useful feature one may consider is to list contents of all local stashes: git stash list | awk -F: ‘{ print “\n\n\n\n”; print $0; print “\n\n”; system(“git –no-pager stash show -p ” $1); }’ | less It helped me a lot in the past (cleaning stashes stack).
Same command with fixed quotes and without piping to less so you can still see the diff highlighting: git stash list | awk -F: '{ print "\n\n\n\n"; print $0; print "\n\n"; system("git stash show -p " $1); }' Press [Q] to exit each stash.
git stash show -p stash@{1} lists all the files in a stash. Is it possible to view jus one specific file from the stash?
git stash show -p stash@{0} --name-only shows just the names of the files (not the contents) in your first stash.
@mrgloom If you want to see the stashed changes for a single file, then something like git diff stash@{0}^! -- file.txt will do it. See here for more details.
