One big thing git-checkout and git-switch will print when not --quiet is "git diff --name-status" to highlight local changes since we allow switching branches when the worktree is not clean. Should it be mentioned in --quiet description? We could also occasionally print advice, branch tracking info, and one-liner summary like "Switched to (new) branch 'master'". -- Duy
