dvc-checkout

dvc checkout [options] [targets...]

dvc checkout synchronizes DVC-tracked files in the workspace with the versions specified in .dvc files. It's used after git checkout to restore data files matching the current Git commit.
When switching Git branches or commits, dvc checkout updates data files to match the .dvc metadata. Files are retrieved from the DVC cache or require dvc pull if not cached locally.
This enables working with different versions of datasets across branches.
