Honestly I would just commit your in progress work then on the other machine check it out and reset to the previous commit.
Then you have your in progress work on the new machine with no random commits.
You could set up an alias that does commit with message "switching machines" and pushes.
Similar have one that pulls and resets.
That doesn't solve the problem of forgetting :(
I could train myself to get in the habit, but maybe auto saving is easier, no?
I wonder if JJ anonymous branches would be something that solves this. I've only read about it, have not used JJ yet.
