I got feedback from 21 Git users on the current version of the git checkout man page to figure out what's confusing about the current text. The goal here is to clarify the parts of the man page they found the most confusing, while accurately communicating the same information as before. About 50% of the users who gave the feedback said they've been using Git for 5-10 years and 50% have been using Git for 10+ years.
