The DWIM mode of checkout allows you to run "git checkout foo" when there is
no existing local ref or path called "foo", and there is exactly one remote
with a remote-tracking branch called "foo". Git will then automatically
create a new local branch called "foo" using the remote-tracking "foo" as
its starting point and configured upstream.
