git commands - what does this mean?

Reprinted from the git commands - what does this mean?

git command --What does it mean?

See command git checkout -- files

I do not know --what the representative. Checked, --it is linux stuff, used to mark the end of the command entry. Meaning a little escape.

For example:

git checkout master

The above command, master might be a branch may also be a file. Priority will be understood as a branch. If you want to branch out and a file of the same name, you must use the following form:

git checkout -- master
