 Running `git checkout [branch]` is pretty similar to running `git reset --hard [branch]` in that it updates all three trees for you to look like `[branch]`, but there are two important differences.
 
 First, unlike `reset --hard`, `checkout` is working-directory safe; it will check to make sure it's not blowing away files that have changes to them.
-Actually, it's a bit smarter than that -- it tries to do a trivial merge in the Working Directory, so all of the files you _haven't_ changed in will be updated.
+Actually, it's a bit smarter than that -- it tries to do a trivial merge in the Working Directory, so all of the files you _haven't_ changed will be updated.
 `reset --hard`, on the other hand, will simply replace everything across the board without checking.
 
 The second important difference is how `checkout` updates HEAD.
