From: Ben Peart <benpeart@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Commit fa655d8411 (checkout: optimize "git checkout -b <new_branch>", 2018-08-16) introduced an unintentional change in behavior for 'checkout -b' after doing 'clone --no-checkout'. Add a test to demonstrate the changed behavior to be used in a later patch to verify the fix.
