When we switch from one branch to another, it makes sense to show a
summary of local changes since there could be conflicts, or some files
left modified.... When switch is used solely for creating a new
branch (and "switch" to the same commit) or detaching, we don't really
need to show anything.
"git checkout" does it anyway for historical reasons. But we can start
with a clean slate with switch and don't have to.
This essentially reverts fa655d8411 (checkout: optimize "git checkout
-b <new_branch>" - 2018-08-16) and make it default for switch,
but also for -B and --detach. Users of big repos are encouraged to
move to switch.

This is already the default in git-checkout. The real change in here is
just minor cleanup. The main excuse is to explain why dwim is kept default.
Contrary to detach mode that is easy to get into and confusing to get
back out. Automatically creating a tracking branch often does not kick
in as often (you would need a branch of the same name on a remote). And
since the branch creation is reported clearly, the user should be able
to undo/delete it if it's unwanted.

"git checkout" automatically detaches branches and --detach is not
that useful (--no-detach is more likely). But for "switch", you
may want to use it more often once you're used to detached HEAD. This
of course adds -d to git-checkout but it does not harm (yet?) to do it.

"git checkout <commit>" will checkout the commit in question and
detach HEAD from the current branch. It is naturally a right thing to
do once you get git references. But detached HEAD is a scary concept
to new users because we show a lot of warnings and stuff, and it could
be hard to get out of (until you know better).
To keep switch a bit more friendly to new users, we only allow
entering detached HEAD mode when --detach is given. "git
switch" must take a branch (unless you create a new branch,
then of course switch can take any commit-ish)

"git checkout" can be executed without any arguments. What it does is
not exactly great: it switches from HEAD to HEAD and shows worktree
modification as a side effect.
Make switch reject this case. Just use "git status" if you want
that side effect. For switch, you have to either
- really switch a branch
- (explicitly) detach from the current branch
- create a new branch

This command is about switching branch (or creating a new one) and
should not accept pathspec. This helps simplify ambiguation
handling. The other two ("git checkout" and "git restore") of
course do accept pathspec as before.

--discard-changes is a better name than --force for this option since
it's what really happens. --force is turned to an alias for
--discard-changes. But it's meant to be an alias for potentially more
force options in the future.
Side note. It's not obvious from the patch but --discard-changes also
affects submodules if --recurse-submodules is used. The knob to force
updating submodules is hidden behind unpack-trees.c

The shortcut of these options do not make much sense when used with
switch. And their descriptions are also tied to checkout. Move -b/-B

"git checkout" doing too many things is a source of confusion for many
users (and it even bites old timers sometimes). To remedy that, the
command will be split into two new ones: switch and restore. The good
old "git checkout" command is still here and will be until all (or most
of users) are sick of it.
See the new man page for the final design of switch. The actual
implementation though is still pretty much the same as "git checkout"
and not completely aligned with the man page. Following patches will
adjust their behavior to match the man page.

This is a preparation step for introducing new commands that do parts
of what checkout does. There will be two new commands, one is about
switching branches, detaching HEAD... one about checking out
paths. These share the a subset of command line options. The rest of
command line options are separate.

After a successful switch, if a merge, cherry-pick or revert is ongoing,
it is canceled. This behavior has been with us from the very early
beginning, soon after git-merge was created but never actually
documented [1]. It may be a good idea to be transparent and tell the
user if some operation is canceled.
I consider this a better way of telling the user than just adding a
sentence or two in git-checkout.txt, which will be mostly ignored
anyway.
PS. Originally I wanted to print more details like
warning: cancelling an in-progress merge from <SHA-1>
which may allow some level of undo if the user wants to. But that seems
a lot more work. Perhaps it can be improved later if people still want
that.
[1] ... and I will try not to argue whether it is a sensible behavior.
There is some more discussion here if people are interested:

Detached HEAD mode is considered dangerous and confusing for newcomers
and we print a big block of warning how to move forward. But we should
also suggest the user the way to get out of it if they get into detached
HEAD by mistake.
While at there, I also suggest how to turn the advice off. This is
another thing I find annoying with advices and should be dealt with in a
more generic way. But that may require some refactoring in advice.c
first.

<branch> can be omitted in this syntax, and it's actually documented a
few paragraphs down:
You could omit <branch>, in which case the command degenerates to
"check out the current branch", which is a glorified no-op with
rather expensive side-effects to show only the tracking information,
if exists, for the current branch.

Recently the Git for Windows project started the upgrade process to
a MSYS2 runtime version based on Cygwin v3.x.
This has the very notable consequence that `$(uname -r)` no longer
reports a version starting with "2", but a version with "3".
That breaks our build, as df5218b4c30b (config.mak.uname: support MSys2,
2016-01-13) simply did not expect the version reported by `uname -r` to
depend on the underlying Cygwin version: it expected the reported
version to match the "2" in "MSYS2".
So let's invert that test case to test for *anything else* than a
version starting with "1" (for MSys). That should safeguard us for the
future, even if Cygwin ends up releasing versionsl like 314.272.65536.
