reset" to jump to arbitrary commit, while still keeping your
HEAD detached.
Going back to attached state (i.e. on a particular branch) by
"git checkout $branch" can lose the current stat you arrived
in these ways, and "git checkout" refuses when the detached
HEAD is not pointed by any existing ref (an existing branch,
a remote tracking branch or a tag). This safety can be
overridden with "git checkout -f $branch".
Remember that a detached state is volatile, i.e. it will be forgotten
as soon as you move away from it with the checkout or reset command,
unless a branch is created from it as mentioned above. It is also
possible to rescue a lost detached state from the HEAD reflog.
