It is usually a good idea to view your patch in your MUA before
sending them out.

You will spot HT vs SP indentation inconsistencies right away.

Dang.  It looked ok in emacs.  :(

HEAD did not change but don't you want to differenciate if the
checkout was from the index or from the HEAD?  If not why not?

Hmmmm.  It wouldn't hurt to add another arg though I guess in case
someone might use it.  I'm just trying to figure out how to word this
nicely in the Documentation.
