bug#28459: 26.0.50; removing a stash in vc-dir moves point

[Tom Tromey]

I'm using vc-dir.
In a vc-dir (git) buffer, I have a large number of stashes.
I C-k on one stash to remove it.

After the stash is removed, point jumps to the start of the buffer.
It would be nicer if point stayed where it was.

Tom

This has been fixed in Emacs 28.
