Question: I'm getting this error when running "git stash"

```
Cannot save the current status

```

with no other information.

Why is that?

Answer: 
I solve this problem by `git stash clear`.
I solved it in Windows by right clicking on the shortcut to Git Bash and choosing "Run as administrator" before I run `git stash`.

I can verify that running Git Fork as administrator also solves this problem if using Git Fork to stash, so there is a good chance it will solve it in other git tools such as Git for Windows or Sourcetree.
