The command line completion for git-checkout bails out when seeing '--'
as an isolated argument. For git-checkout this signifies the start of a
list of files which are to be checked out. Checkout of files makes only
sense for modified files,
No, there is e.g. 'git checkout that-branch this-path', too.

quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
therefore completion can be a bit smarter:
Instead of bailing out, offer modified files for completion.
