For heavyweight checkouts, this checks that there are no local commits
versus the current bound branch, then it makes the local branch a mirror
of the new location and binds to it.</p>
<p>In both cases, the working tree is updated and uncommitted changes
are merged. The user can commit or revert these as they desire.</p>
<p>Pending merges need to be committed or reverted before using switch.</p>
<p>The path to the branch to switch to can be specified relative to the parent
directory of the current branch. For example, if you are currently in a
checkout of /path/to/branch, specifying ‘newbranch’ will find a branch at
/path/to/newbranch.</p>
<p class="last">Bound branches use the nickname of its master branch unless it is set
locally, in which case switching will update the local nickname to be
that of the master.</p>
