Ok, the laziest thing I can do is reorder the text.
currently we do:
to pull subset
--note
explain @
to checkout foo
I think moving @+checkout foo before pull subset would probably
address the average case.
I think it's probably also the right thing to do, since
proportionally, people are much more likely to be interested in @/foo
than subseting.
Sound good enough?
