I don't trust git stash and prefer to instead commit, leaving some message like "This is the first commit of branch foo", then rebase when I'm done. That way I don't have to worry about forgetting that I stashed changes earlier, or not being able to find the stash that I thought I did. The branch always has the latest code and i'll just rebase when it's ready.
