One-Sentence Summary

git snooze lets you defer local Git changes for a fixed time, and forces them to come back so they can’t be forgotten.

Summary

git snooze is a small Git tool that temporarily hides local changes for a fixed number of days. Unlike git stash, snoozed changes automatically reappear after their deadline and warn you, making forgotten work impossible.
