branch: rework comments for future developers

For two cases in which we do not explicitly pass --track=<choice>
option down to the submodule--helper subprocess, we have comments
that say "we do not have to pass --track", but in fact we not just
do not have to, but it would be incorrect to pass any --track option
to the subprocess (instead, the correct behaviour is to let the
subprocess figure out what is the appropriate tracking mode to use).
