The only thing you know for sure is that the user has consumed _one_
part of the stashed change, no?  What if the stash had changes for
more than one path?

At the time of "git add $path", can you reliably tell if the
conflict to the $path the user is resolving came from a previous
"git stash pop", not from any other mergy operations, e.g. "git
stash apply" or "git apply -3"?
