| checkout.defaultRemote:: |
| When you run `git checkout <something>` |
| or `git switch <something>` and only have one |
| remote, it may implicitly fall back on checking out and |
| tracking e.g. `origin/<something>`. This stops working as soon |
| as you have more than one remote with a `<something>` |
| reference. This setting allows for setting the name of a |
| preferred remote that should always win when it comes to |
| disambiguation. The typical use-case is to set this to |
| `origin`. |
| + |
| Currently this is used by linkgit:git-switch[1] and |
| linkgit:git-checkout[1] when `git checkout <something>` |
| or `git switch <something>` |
| will checkout the `<something>` branch on another remote, |
| and by linkgit:git-worktree[1] when `git worktree add` refers to a |
| remote branch. This setting might be used for other checkout-like |
| commands or functionality in the future. |
| |
| checkout.guess:: |
| Provides the default value for the `--guess` or `--no-guess` |
| option in `git checkout` and `git switch`. See |
| linkgit:git-switch[1] and linkgit:git-checkout[1]. |
