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

```
Cannot save the current status

```

with no other information.

Why is that?

Answer: 
In my case, I had Visual Studio using git and was trying to stash using the command line.
Closing Visual Studio solved the problem.
I had the same problem because some files changed their permissions (in ubuntu). I fixed it by running the command git stash with "sudo"

```
sudo git stash

```

I hope you can fix the problem
