 DESCRIPTION
@@ -85,6 +85,17 @@ clear::
 	Remove all the stashed states. Note that those states will then
 	be subject to pruning, and may be difficult or impossible to recover.
 
+drop [<stash>]::
+
+	Remove a single stashed state from the stash list. When no `<stash>`
+	is given, it removes the latest one. i.e. `stash@\{0}`
+
+pop [<stash>]::
+
+	Remove a single stashed state from the stash list and apply on top
+	of the current working tree state. When no `<stash>` is given,
+	`stash@\{0}` is assumed. See also `apply`.
