I'll add to that:
Just never ever thing you're smart and git clone that directory first
to try things. When you do, you're screwed once you delete the
original copy, since the clone doesn't know anything about the
branches after that thing anymore, I had to spend too much time to
fixup with that.

detached heads in git are dangerous!!! Don't use them (always name it,
even if it is "stupidnametonotredoeverythingbecauseofdetachedheadmadness").
I learned the hard way…

Especially when you're used to mercurial and thing "what's so bad
about multiple heads, that's a no-brainer": GIT is very different in
this regard. You have been warned.
