I'd just like to point out quickly that I first attempted to write 6/6 without this patch. It is absolutely impossible, because the "detached HEAD from/to" messages no longer make any sense when checkout starts respecting GIT_REFLOG_ACTION. At that point, I'm was just monkeying around the trash-directory running describes to somehow try and make the expected output equal to the actual output. There was no method to the madness, and I was literally losing my mind.

This is _the_ patch that makes this series possible.

If you want to be convinced, please attempt to drop this patch and fix the tests in 6/6. You will see what I mean.
