All that will happen is that any changes you've made to files git is tracking in the current commit will be reverted. New files will be left intact, as will ignored ones, but deleted files will be restored. Basically, checkout does its best to get you to the exact state described in the commit you specify, which in this case is the commit at the tip of master. If you haven't made any changes since the last checkout, it will do nothing at all.
