git branch checks out commit, not branch

[fdw]

Description
When using the git branch channel and the checkout action, I end up headless on a certain commit, not the expected branch

Example

1. Call tv git-branch
2. Choose some other branch.
3. Hit enter
4. See that you're now headless

Expected behavior
I expected to be on that branch, not headless on the last commit.

Environment

• OS: Linux
• TV version: 0.15.
• shell: zsh
• terminal: Kitty
• Your configuration file (~/.config/television/config.toml): Default, no customization (yet)
• The channel you are using (if applicable and different from the default): git-branch

Hi, thanks for the report.
Am not able to reproduce unfortunately, unless I'm checking out a remote branch in which case ending up in headless mode is consistent with git's default behavior.

If you never want this to happen, you can:

• update the git-branch channel config file to only show local branches (remove -all from the source command)
• update the action to automatically create a new local branch when checking out a remote one

I think git switch does simply checkout a remote branch, not headless. Would it be an option to change to that (seeing that it's recommended over git checkout)?
