+/**
+ * Checkout behavior flags
+ *
+ * In libgit2, checkout is used to update the working directory and index
+ * to match a target tree. Unlike git checkout, it does not move the HEAD
+ * commit for you - use `git_repository_set_head` or the like to do that.
+ *
+ * Checkout looks at (up to) four things: the "target" tree you want to
+ * check out, the "baseline" tree of what was checked out previously, the
+ * working directory for actual files, and the index for staged changes.
+ *
+ * You give checkout one of three strategies for update:
+ *
+ * - `GIT_CHECKOUT_NONE` is a dry-run strategy that checks for conflicts,
+ * etc., but doesn't make any actual changes.
+ *
+ * - `GIT_CHECKOUT_FORCE` is at the opposite extreme, taking any action to
+ * make the working directory match the target (including potentially
+ * discarding modified files).
+ *
+ * - `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE` is between these two options, it will only make
+ * modifications that will not lose changes.
+ *
+ * | target == baseline | target != baseline |
+ * ---------------------|-----------------------|----------------------|
+ * workdir == baseline | no action | create, update, or |
+ * | | delete file |
+ * ---------------------|-----------------------|----------------------|
+ * workdir exists and | no action | conflict (notify |
+ * is != baseline | notify dirty MODIFIED | and cancel checkout) |
+ * ---------------------|-----------------------|----------------------|
+ * workdir missing, | notify dirty DELETED | create file |
+ * baseline present | | |
+ * ---------------------|-----------------------|----------------------|
+ *
+ * To emulate `git checkout`, use `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE` with a checkout
+ * notification callback (see below) that displays information about dirty
+ * files. The default behavior will cancel checkout on conflicts.
+ *
+ * To emulate `git checkout-index`, use `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE` with a
+ * notification callback that cancels the operation if a dirty-but-existing
+ * file is found in the working directory. This core git command isn't
+ * quite "force" but is sensitive about some types of changes.
+ *
+ * To emulate `git checkout -f`, use `GIT_CHECKOUT_FORCE`.
+ *
+ *
+ * There are some additional flags to modify the behavior of checkout:
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_ALLOW_CONFLICTS makes SAFE mode apply safe file updates
+ * even if there are conflicts (instead of cancelling the checkout).
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_REMOVE_UNTRACKED means remove untracked files (i.e. not
+ * in target, baseline, or index, and not ignored) from the working dir.
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_REMOVE_IGNORED means remove ignored files (that are also
+ * untracked) from the working directory as well.
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_UPDATE_ONLY means to only update the content of files that
+ * already exist. Files will not be created nor deleted. This just skips
+ * applying adds, deletes, and typechanges.
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_DONT_UPDATE_INDEX prevents checkout from writing the
+ * updated files' information to the index.
+ *
+ * - Normally, checkout will reload the index and git attributes from disk
+ * before any operations. GIT_CHECKOUT_NO_REFRESH prevents this reload.
+ *
+ * - Unmerged index entries are conflicts. GIT_CHECKOUT_SKIP_UNMERGED skips
+ * files with unmerged index entries instead. GIT_CHECKOUT_USE_OURS and
+ * GIT_CHECKOUT_USE_THEIRS to proceed with the checkout using either the
+ * stage 2 ("ours") or stage 3 ("theirs") version of files in the index.
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_DONT_OVERWRITE_IGNORED prevents ignored files from being
+ * overwritten. Normally, files that are ignored in the working directory
+ * are not considered "precious" and may be overwritten if the checkout
+ * target contains that file.
+ *
+ * - GIT_CHECKOUT_DONT_REMOVE_EXISTING prevents checkout from removing
+ * files or folders that fold to the same name on case insensitive
+ * filesystems. This can cause files to retain their existing names
+ * and write through existing symbolic links.
