when someone will answer this question, it would be _very_ much
appreciated if the answer were put back into both

-- http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts which suggests the
   ShelveExtension or the AtticExtension neither of which is distributed
   with mercurial

-- http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/MqExtension which does not mention
   the word "stash" at all

thanks in advance.
