s|/branch.txt|/checkout.txt|, I think.

Leaving some stuff out is fine, but I am not sure I understand
(note: I didn't say "I agree with") the reasoning.  I take "various
options there" to mean the configuration variables described in
config/remote.txt file?  If these variables affect the behaviour of
commands like fetch, remote, and push, isn't it more reason to
include the description of them?
