Where are the not-selected changes while typing a commit message?

[HighCommander4]

I sometimes run into the following situation:

• I have changes in my working copy
• I run git crecord, and select a subset of them to commit, while leaving others in my working copy
• As I'm typing my commit message, I'd like to check something in the changes I didn't select to commit

At this moment, the changes in question (which I didn't select to commit) are not present in my working copy. Where are they / where can I look to take a look at them while I'm writing my commit message?

Hi, and thanks for using git-crecord 👋
The current implementation (being derived from hg-crecord) stores all changes from the working copy in temporary files under .git/record-backups. You can see what files those are if you use --debug.
I have a plan at some point to start using the Git object storage instead at some point — in a way roughly equivalent to what git stash does.

Thanks for the response :)

By the way, sorry to mention an unrelated issue here, but do you by chance have any advice on #56 (comment)? I'm continuing to experience that issue.
