Added. Feel free to try it out, but it's very lightly tested. You can do just "git checkout" and it will checkout the current HEAD, but won't overwrite anything old. Use the "-f" flag to force overwrite. It can also take a new HEAD, ie you can check out the parent of the current HEAD by doing git checkout HEAD^ and if you actually want to set the HEAD to that parent you can do so with the "-u" flag, so git checkout -u HEAD^ is basically equivalent to "undo the topmost commit". It's not quite your "switch", though, because it will always _write_ to the current HEAD, it won't be switching the current HEAD around to another branch. I almost think that behavkiour would be more useful, I'll think about how to do it sanely.
