Subject: [BUG] potential error in parsing git checkout options?
Message-ID: <854038739.144343.1432895421483.JavaMail.zimbra@ensimag.grenoble-inp.fr>
In-Reply-To: <156258182.144342.1432895411512.JavaMail.zimbra@ensimag.grenoble-inp.fr>

Git version : 2.4.1.652.g8fd8657 

When we run git checkout -babar, we would expect an error message like 
"unknown switch 'a' " and we get "Switched to a new branch 'abar'". We 
are not sure since we don't entirely understand the syntax -b <branch> 
which is shown in the documentation, but as average users, we found it 
a bit surprising.
