I've wanted this for a long time, and also a frequently-amended working-tree-as-a-commit. Why? I prefer a each branch to have its own staging area and working tree, which maps better to my mental model of "branch as an under-development feature". Currently my workflow to achieve this involves a lot of stashing.

What's the difference between a stash and a "working tree as a commit"?

Do you know about git worktree? Because that sounds exactly what you want. Each worktree has its own index (staging area) and working tree.
