These days, you can say "git checkout topic" to automagically create
a local "topic" branch that forks from "origin/topic" remote tracking
branch when you have one, thanks to Dscho's UI improvement ideas. As
such it is more appropriate to say that the user is checking out
something that is not a branch name, rather than saying it is not a
'local branch'.
