These are all just minor typos I noticed while reading the
release notes.

I did find the first entry on the checkout --no-overlay read
a bit strangely with the multiple "out's" in '... checking
out paths out ...'.  Is it any easier to read with:

    * "git checkout --no-overlay" can be used to trigger a new mode of
  -   checking out paths out of the tree-ish, that allows paths that
  +   checking out paths from the tree-ish, which allows paths that
      match the pathspec that are in the current index and working tree
      and are not in the tree-ish.

? (There's any number of other ways to drop one of the
"out's" [and similarly replaces a "that" with "which"] in
the sentence, of course.  Whether it's worth doing at all is
really the question.)

Ah, of courese, "checking paths out of the tree-ish" was what I
meant to say, as I find "checkout" (or worse "check-out", or even
worse "check out") used as a verb a bit too techy.

Thanks for all other typofixes.
