The usual dwim_ref lookup prefers tags to branches. Because checkout primarily works on branches, though, we switch that behavior to prefer branches. However, there was a bug in the implementation in which we used lookup_commit_reference (which used the regular lookup rules) to get the actual commit to checkout. Checking out an ambiguous ref therefore ended up putting us in an extremely broken state in which we wrote the branch ref into HEAD, but actually checked out the tree for the tag. This patch fixes the bug by always attempting to pull the commit to be checked out from the branch-ified version of the name we were given. Patch by Junio, tests and commit message from Jeff King.
