+Interrupted workflow::

+You can get interrupted by an ungent fix request while you are
+still in the middle of a large change.  The files in your
+working tree are not in any shape to be committed yet, but you
+need to get to the other branch for a quick bugfix.

+$ work work work       ;# got interrupted
+$ git commit -a -m 'snapshot WIP' <1>
+$ git checkout master
+$ fix fix fix

+$ git reset <3>

+<1> This commit will get blown away so a throw-away log message is OK.
+<2> This removes the 'WIP' commit from the commit history, and makes
+    your working tree in the state just before you made that snapshot.
+<3> After <2>, the index file still has all the WIP changes you
+    committed in <1>.  This sets it to the last commit you were

+master::
+	The default branch. Whenever you create a git repository, a branch

+origin::
