The difference between git stash pop and git stash drop?

Both are removing the stash then what's more?

git stash pop removes the top stashed state and apply it on top of the current working tree. On the other hand, git stash drop just removes that state, not applying it.

That is, `stash pop` is `stash apply` + `stash drop`. – phd Jun 22 '17 at 12:57
