add double dash to move to another branch, not reset file/directory in git client

[firemark]

This bug occurs only when you have file and branch on remote with the same name, because if git checkout don't find local branch then resets file with this name.

How to reproduce

1. Make a file foo and commit it
2. Make a branch foo and push it to remote
3. Use vcs tool with config:

repositories:
  repo:
    type: git
    url: git@gitlab.com:foo/bar/repo.git
    version: foo

4. In results, downloaded repository has branch master not foo

Solution

According to https://git-scm.com/docs/git-checkout adds a double dash is enough
