Actually, to this user, it seems like the same thing. "Checkout
creates a working tree for a branch". That's pretty much what it
means (mod slightly different 'branch' meanings) in CVS/SVN, so it
seems natural. It doesn't mean "work in a centralized manner";
working in a centralized manner just means multiple WT's on one
branch, so requires a 'checkout' sort of verb; B->A, !(A->B).
