Git Stash Learns Its Purpose

Description

A three-panel Rick and Morty butter robot meme is edited with the label "git stash" over the small robot. The first panel shows the robot asking, "What is my purpose?" The second panel shows Rick answering, "You let me pull without merge conflicts," while Morty watches from the side. The final panel shows the robot reacting, "oh my god". The meme captures the humble but critical role of `git stash`: temporarily shelving local changes so a developer can pull upstream work without immediately colliding with an uncommitted working tree.
