Re: [PATCH v2 7/7] Suggest other commands instead of "git checkout"

I see my deliberate attempt to provoke has failed :D Giving your view
of the new commands as "training wheels", I take it we still should
make them visible as much as possible, but we just not try to hide
"git checkout" as much (e.g. we mention both new and old commands,
instead of just mentioning the new one, when suggesting something)?

Yes, I do support the overall idea of learning two (or possibly
three) separate commands would help new users to form the right
mental model much sooner than learning one that can be used in
multiple ways.  Another possible approach could be to split the use
of "reset" that does not move "HEAD" into the same half of
"checkout" that does not move "HEAD", i.e. checkout-files.
