This brings up a point I wanted to raise - sometimes when the meanings
across the systems (including Git) are too conflicting, it should be
considered to use a completely different command name whatsoever to
reduce the confusion. This is e.g. the reason Cogito had no "pull"
(but "update") or "checkout" (but "restore" and "switch") commands.
