-checkout.defaultRemote::
- When you run 'git checkout <something>' and only have one
- remote, it may implicitly fall back on checking out and
- tracking e.g. 'origin/<something>'. This stops working as soon
- as you have more than one remote with a '<something>'
- reference. This setting allows for setting the name of a
- preferred remote that should always win when it comes to
- disambiguation. The typical use-case is to set this to
- `origin`.

-Currently this is used by linkgit:git-checkout[1] when 'git checkout
-<something>' will checkout the '<something>' branch on another remote,
-and by linkgit:git-worktree[1] when 'git worktree add' refers to a
-remote branch. This setting might be used for other checkout-like
-commands or functionality in the future.

-checkout.optimizeNewBranch::
- Optimizes the performance of "git checkout -b <new_branch>" when
- using sparse-checkout. When set to true, git will not update the
- repo based on the current sparse-checkout settings. This means it
- will not update the skip-worktree bit in the index nor add/remove
- files in the working directory to reflect the current sparse checkout
- settings nor will it show the local changes.
