Yes my intention was to fix the obvious, as I assumed the discussion
about the exact spec for the '-' has been finished.
Your patch probably makes more sense however.

There was a discusssion about it recently. - would generally mean the
last thing (kind of an undo), so git checkout - would switch to the last
branch. It's similar to 'cd -'.
So I am not sure if this is generally @{-1}, or if we need to have other
references for other commands.

For example, I think you can cherry-pick multiple commits these
