Is the new 'checkout_existing_branch' argument and this new
conditional really needed? Both 'new_branch' and 'new_branch_force'
will be NULL in the case of an existing branch, so there should be no
need for 'checkout_existing_branch' to state explicitly what is
already indicated by their NULLness. With both of them NULL, the
existing "(checking out '...')" message later in the function will
kick in, so this new condition isn't needed.

See above regarding apparent lack of need for this new variable.

Taking the above observation into account, I applied, atop this patch,
the following fixup! which removes the 'checkout_existing_branch'
gunk and still get the same output:
