I’m not sure either what’s the purpose of checking out just a directory… in git, since it does global versions for commits, it does not has much sense… also git is designed to do the branching a very easy/efficient task open a new branch… and then merging back is a second-time task). 
So I suppose this is the right way to do it… I imagine that different tools means sometimes different ways of doing things, and forcing “old way” can be not as effective as it was before. 

+1 for this step list :)

why? if you made a mistake you can just kill the branch :)
