Please take a look at Documentation/SubmittingPatches. In particular:

  - this change should be split into two different patches (one for
    s/revert/reset, and one for adding "checkout").

  - patches should be sent to the list for review, as described in
    SubmittingPatches

  - commit messages should be formatted in the usual git way. I.e,

      one-line description of the change

      more elaborate description of the change, including
      details of the change, but most importantly discussing
      the rationale for the change. In order for your patch to
      be accepted, you must explain _why_ you think it's a good
      idea.
