New git switch and git restore commands added in 2019 #8

Description

@amiryal

From the release notes:

  • Two new commands "git switch" and "git restore" are introduced to
    split "checking out a branch to work on advancing its history" and
    "checking out paths out of the index and/or a tree-ish to work on
    advancing the current history" out of the single "git checkout"
    command.

My questions are:

  1. How would you feel about a patch that rewrites the confusion about checkout versus reset section in what/gcs.mkd to feature the twe new commands, and only mention git checkout as a legacy command?
  2. Would you rather wait for such a patch, or rewrite the section by yourself?
