The errors will not be the result of a 'git checkout' command. It more
looks like a git pull. This is the reason, I don't advice to use git pull.

If you would have done a 'git fetch', you will retrieve the new commits.
Then, you want to reset the features/chat2 branch to the new one tommasso
pushed:

$ git checkout features/chat2
$ git reset --hard <name_of_remote>/features/chat2

This must work without problems.
