When a command is rendered as an icon (like many Git commands), Orion displays an informative tooltip on hover. The tooltip explains what the command *does* but not what it is *named* ("Checkout", "Reset", etc). A user who is familiar with Git then has to parse through the tooltip to figure out which command they are looking at. It might be helpful to prefix the tooltip with the command name. (This would only apply to image-commands, since commands rendered as buttons already show the command name as the button text).
