We move the code to push the branches context into CheckoutRef, this way it works consistently no matter where we call it from. Previously, checking out remote branches or tags would switch to the branches view, but checking out a commit did not.

Note that it now also takes effect for undoing or redoing a checkout, which may be a bit questionable; but I still think it makes sense for this, too.

We usually put Lines() on a line by itself, and it makes the diff of the next
commit much easier to read.
