Like you said, "it already refers to checkout and handles it
correctly". I think the use of the simple present tense here is
correct: it's a fact. Feel free to advice another wording if you
prefer.

Not sure what's wrong here, can you explain why it's failing? I'm
using git-format-patch/git-send-email with default settings. Also, if
you can edit and keep the sign-off (I'm not familiar with the
mailing-list maintainer workflow, sorry), feel free to do it.
