This is another departure from 'git checkout' syntax, which uses -- to
separate ref and pathspec. The observation is restore (or "git
checkout -- <pathspec>") is most often used to restore some files from
the index. If this is correct, we can simplify it by taking away the
ref, so that we can write
git restore some-file
without worrying about some-file being a ref and whether we need to do
git restore -- some-file
for safety. If the source of the restore comes from a tree, it will be
in the form of an option with value, e.g.
git restore --source=this-tree some-file
This is of course longer to type than using "--". But hopefully it
will not be used as often, and it is clearly easier to understand.
dwim_new_local_branch is no longer set (or unset) in cmd_restore_files()
because it's irrelevant because we don't really care about dwim-ing.
With accept_ref being unset, dwim can't happen.
