If you have committed changes on a topic branch - and this is usually
the most convenient way to work on non-trivial changes - see "Make
your changes on a private "topic" branch" below.

If you have uncommitted changes in your working copy, most operations
will not affect them.  Still, it is probably simplest to commit them
to a topic branch; otherwise changes that "git checkout" needs to make
could be blocked by your local changes.
