I left "git checkout" alone, though I'd also like to turn it off there,
too. Should it get a separate advice option there? Should it simply
respect statusHints (it seems odd because I know that "status" there
means "git status", not "hints about the status of your repo")?

I agree that we should have a toggle to turn it off and I think it
is OK to reuse the same "hints about the status" option for this
purpose.  It is not like there is a released version that already
gives the advice (possibly with some other option to turn it off)
and you are changing the behaviour of "checkout" by suddenly making
it honor statusHints advice.

So let's do a lot simpler patch instead.
