You are right (of course), sorry for those messages, in fact the help
command
on checkout on the fact that it manages branches,  is not so obvious for me:
Check out a version specified on the command-line.  This command
will abort if there are edited files in the current checkout unless
the --force option appears on the command-line.  The --keep option
leaves files on disk unchanged, except the manifest and manifest.uuid
files.

Instead of update help is explicit:
The VERSION argument can be a specific version or tag or branch name.

That's why I made a mistake.

Sorry,
Thank you.
