When a user asked for a detached HEAD specifically with `--detach`, we do not need to give advice on what a detached HEAD state entails as we can assume they know what they're getting into as they asked for it.

I think if the advice is configured explicitly we can still give it. That makes the code a bit more complicated though. Also note I added stderr to stdout redirections as suggested by Peff.
