Sorry for going missing a while from the conversation, and thanks so
much for pushing this forward.

Overall this looks good, but there's just one part that confuses me.
Here you seem to suggest that if you pass --source but neither --index
or --worktree that both the index and working tree will be written to.
Why are "restored" changes considered ready for commit?  That seems
confusing to me (and was one of the bugs of checkout, IMO).  See also
