Preference git stash apply over pop when first learning

Flipped to `apply` over `pop` based on suggestion by
@matthewmccullough. User can then have their Pringles
moment after first trying their hand at repatching in
a way that doesn't make things disappear.

Expanded the goings-on of `git stash list` and the
fact that new items are made into zero, pushing the
rest under.
