You're right.  That's new in 1.5, I guess.  (Although I would be very
suspicious after reading only the first screenful of "man git"!  Even

Ah, OK.  I should have known that wasn't going to work.

#!/bin/sh
git checkout -f master

My point remains: git is very good at what it does.  If that is not
what *you* need, it's probably more pain than it's worth.
