When adding a new worktree, it is reasonable to expect that we want to
use the current set of sparse-checkout settings for that new worktree.
This is particularly important for repositories where the worktree would
become too large to be useful. This is even more important when using
partial clone as well, since we want to avoid downloading the missing
blobs for files that should not be written to the new worktree.
The only way to create such a worktree without this intermediate step of
expanding the full worktree is to copy the sparse-checkout patterns and
config settings during 'git worktree add'. Each worktree has its own
sparse-checkout patterns, and the default behavior when the
sparse-checkout file is missing is to include all paths at HEAD. Thus,
we need to have patterns from somewhere, they might as well be the
current worktree's patterns. These are then modified independently in
the future.
In addition to the sparse-checkout file, copy the worktree config file
if worktree config is enabled and the file exists. This will copy over
any important settings to ensure the new worktree behaves the same as
the current one. The only exception we must continue to make is that
core.bare and core.worktree should become unset in the worktree's config
file.

Move the running of the 'post-checkout' hook away from run-command.h
to the new hook.h library in builtin/worktree.c. For this special case
we need a change to the hook API to teach it to run the hook from a
given directory.
We cannot skip the "absolute_path" flag and just check if "dir" is
specified as we'd then fail to find our hook in the new dir we'd
chdir() to. We currently don't have a use-case for running a hook not
in our "base" repository at a given absolute path, so let's have "dir"
imply absolute_path(find_hook(hook_name)).

"git worktree add" showed "Preparing worktree" message to the
standard output stream, but when it failed, the message from die()
went to the standard error stream. Depending on the order the
stdio streams are flushed at the program end, this resulted in
confusing output. It has been corrected by sending all the chatty
messages to the standard error stream.
* es/worktree-chatty-to-stderr:
git-worktree.txt: add missing `-v` to synopsis for `worktree list`
worktree: send "chatty" messages to stderr
The order in which the stdout and stderr streams are flushed is not
guaranteed to be the same across platforms or `libc` implementations.
This lack of determinism can lead to anomalous and potentially confusing
output if normal (stdout) output is flushed after error (stderr) output.
For instance, the following output which clearly indicates a failure due
to a fatal error:
% git worktree add ../foo bar
Preparing worktree (checking out 'bar')
fatal: 'bar' is already checked out at '.../wherever'
has been reported[1] on Microsoft Windows to appear as:
% git worktree add ../foo bar
fatal: 'bar' is already checked out at '.../wherever'
Preparing worktree (checking out 'bar')
which may confuse the reader into thinking that the command somehow
recovered and ran to completion despite the error.
This problem crops up because the "chatty" status message "Preparing
worktree" is sent to stdout, whereas the "fatal" error message is sent
to stderr. One way to fix this would be to flush stdout manually before
git-worktree reports any errors to stderr.
However, common practice in Git is for "chatty" messages to be sent to
stderr. Therefore, a more appropriate fix is to adjust git-worktree to
conform to that practice by sending its "chatty" messages to stderr
rather than stdout as is currently the case.
There may be concern that relocating messages from stdout to stderr
could break existing tooling, however, these messages are already
internationalized, thus are unstable. And, indeed, the "Preparing
worktree" message has already been the subject of somewhat significant
changes in 2c27002a0a (worktree: improve message when creating a new
worktree, 2018-04-24). Moreover, there is existing precedent, such as
68b939b2f0 (clone: send diagnostic messages to stderr, 2013-09-18) which
likewise relocated "chatty" messages from stdout to stderr for
git-clone.

Remove the "env" member from "struct child_process" in favor of always
using the "env_array". As with the preceding removal of "argv" in
favor of "args" this gets rid of current and future oddities around
memory management at the API boundary (see the amended API docs).
For some of the conversions we can replace patterns like:
child.env = env->v;
With:
strvec_pushv(&child.env_array, env->v);
But for others we need to guard the strvec_pushv() with a NULL check,
since we're not passing in the "v" member of a "struct strvec",
e.g. in the case of tmp_objdir_env()'s return value.
Ideally we'd rename the "env_array" member to simply "env" as a
follow-up, since it and "args" are now inconsistent in not having an
"_array" suffix, and seemingly without any good reason, unless we look
at the history of how they came to be.
But as we've currently got 122 in-tree hits for a "git grep env_array"
let's leave that for now (and possibly forever). Doing that rename
would be too disruptive.

add_worktree() reuses a `child_process` for three run_command()
invocations, but to do so, it has overly-intimate knowledge of
run-command.c internals. In particular, it knows that it must reset
child_process::argv to NULL for each subsequent invocation[*] in order
for start_command() to latch the newly-populated child_process::args for
each invocation, even though this behavior is not a part of the
documented API. Beyond having overly-intimate knowledge of run-command.c
internals, the reuse of one `child_process` for three run_command()
invocations smells like an unnecessary micro-optimization. Therefore,
stop sharing one `child_process` and instead use a new one for each
run_command() call.
[*] If child_process::argv is not reset to NULL, then subsequent
run_command() invocations will instead incorrectly access a dangling
pointer to freed memory which had been allocated by child_process::args
on the previous run. This is due to the following code in
start_command():

cmd_main() returns immediately thereafter - UNLEAK is good enough.

"git worktree list" annotates each worktree according to its state such
as "prunable" or "locked", however it is not immediately obvious why
these worktrees are being annotated. For prunable worktrees a reason
is available that is returned by should_prune_worktree() and for locked
worktrees a reason might be available provided by the user via `lock`
command.
Let's teach "git worktree list" a --verbose mode that outputs the reason
why the worktrees are being annotated. The reason is a text that can take
virtually any size and appending the text on the default columned format
will make it difficult to extend the command with other annotations and
not fit nicely on the screen. In order to address this shortcoming the
annotation is then moved to the next line indented followed by the reason
If the reason is not available the annotation stays on the same line as
the worktree itself.
The output of "git worktree list" with verbose becomes like so:
$ git worktree list --verbose
...
/path/to/locked-no-reason acb124 [branch-a] locked
/path/to/locked-with-reason acc125 [branch-b]

The "git worktree list" command shows the absolute path to the worktree,
the commit that is checked out, the name of the branch, and a "locked"
annotation if the worktree is locked, however, it does not indicate
whether the worktree is prunable.
The "prune" command will remove a worktree if it is prunable unless
`--dry-run` option is specified. This could lead to a worktree being
removed without the user realizing before it is too late, in case the
user forgets to pass --dry-run for instance. If the "list" command shows
which worktree is prunable, the user could verify before running
"git worktree prune" and hopefully prevents the working tree to be
removed "accidentally" on the worse case scenario.
Let's teach "git worktree list" to show when a worktree is a prunable
candidate for both default and porcelain format.
In the default format a "prunable" text is appended:
$ git worktree list
/path/to/main aba123 [main]
/path/to/linked 123abc [branch-a]
/path/to/prunable ace127 (detached HEAD) prunable

its reason:

Teach "list --porcelain" to do the same and add a "locked" attribute
followed by its reason, thus making both default and porcelain format

In porcelain mode, if the lock reason contains special characters
such as newlines, they are escaped with backslashes and the entire
reason is enclosed in double quotes. For example:
$ git worktree list --porcelain
...
locked "worktree's path mounted in\nremovable device"

`git worktree repair` knows how to repair the two-way links between the
repository and a worktree as long as a link in one or the other
direction is sound. For instance, if a linked worktree is moved (without
using `git worktree move`), repair is possible because the worktree
still knows the location of the repository even though the repository no
longer knows where the worktree is. Similarly, if the repository is
moved, repair is possible since the repository still knows the locations
of the worktrees even though the worktrees no longer know where the
repository is.
However, if both the repository and the worktrees are moved, then links
are severed in both directions, and no repair is possible. This is the
case even when the new worktree locations are specified as arguments to
`git worktree repair`. The reason for this limitation is twofold. First,
when `repair` consults the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git)
to determine the corresponding <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to fix,
<repo> is the old path to the repository, thus it is unable to fix the
`gitdir` file at its new location since it doesn't know where it is.
Second, when `repair` consults <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to find the
location of the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git), the path
recorded in `gitdir` is the old location of the worktree's gitfile, thus
it is unable to repair the gitfile since it doesn't know where it is.
Fix these shortcomings by teaching `repair` to attempt to infer the new
location of the <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file when the location
recorded in the worktree's gitfile has become stale but the file is
otherwise well-formed. The inference is intentionally simple-minded.
For each worktree path specified as an argument, `git worktree repair`
manually reads the ".git" gitfile at that location and, if it is
well-formed, extracts the <id>. It then searches for a corresponding
<id> in <repo>/worktrees/ and, if found, concludes that there is a
reasonable match and updates <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to point at
the specified worktree path. In order for <repo> to be known, `git
worktree repair` must be run in the main worktree or bare repository.
`git worktree repair` first attempts to repair each incoming
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile to point at the repository, and then
attempts to repair outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files to point
at the worktrees. This sequence was chosen arbitrarily when originally
implemented since the order of fixes is immaterial as long as one side
of the two-way link between the repository and a worktree is sound.
However, for this new repair technique to work, the order must be
reversed. This is because the new inference mechanism, when it is
successful, allows the outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to be
repaired, thus fixing one side of the two-way link. Once that side is
fixed, the other side can be fixed by the existing repair mechanism,
hence the order of repairs is now significant.
Two safeguards are employed to avoid hijacking a worktree from a

The "git worktree list" shows the absolute path to the working tree,
the commit that is checked out and the name of the branch. It is not
immediately obvious which of the worktrees, if any, are locked.
"git worktree remove" refuses to remove a locked worktree with
an error message. If "git worktree list" told which worktrees
are locked in its output, the user would not even attempt to
remove such a worktree, or would realize that
"git worktree remove -f -f <path>" is required.
Teach "git worktree list" to append "locked" to its output.
The output from the command becomes like so:
$ git worktree list

/path/to/worktree 456def (detached HEAD)
/path/to/locked-worktree 123abc (detached HEAD) locked

The .git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file points at the location of a linked
worktree's .git file. Its content must be of the form
/path/to/worktree/.git (from which the location of the worktree itself
can be derived by stripping the "/.git" suffix). If the gitdir file is
deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated, then Git will be unable to
find the linked worktree. An easy way for the gitdir file to become
outdated is for the user to move the worktree manually (without using
"git worktree move"). Although it is possible to manually update the
gitdir file to reflect the new linked worktree location, doing so
requires a level of knowledge about worktree internals beyond what a
user should be expected to know offhand.
Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
.git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files automatically. (For this to work, the
command must either be invoked from within the worktree whose gitdir
file requires repair, or from within the main or any linked worktree by

The .git file in a linked worktree is a "gitfile" which points back to

Worktree administrative files can become corrupted or outdated due to
external factors. Although, it is often possible to recover from such
situations by hand-tweaking these files, doing so requires intimate

such repairs manually can be obtained from git-worktree.txt and
gitrepository-layout.txt, we can assist users more directly by teaching

some extent). Therefore, add a "git worktree repair" command which

Code which split an argv_array call across multiple lines, like:

"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
was recently mechanically renamed to use strvec, which results in
mis-matched indentation like:
strvec_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
Let's fix these up to align the arguments with the opening paren. I did
this manually by sifting through the results of:
git jump grep 'strvec_.*,$'
and liberally applying my editor's auto-format. Most of the changes are
of the form shown above, though I also normalized a few that had
originally used a single-tab indentation (rather than our usual style of
aligning with the open paren). I also rewrapped a couple of obvious
cases (e.g., where previously too-long lines became short enough to fit
on one), but I wasn't aggressive about it. In cases broken to three or
more lines, the grouping of arguments is sometimes meaningful, and it
wasn't worth my time or reviewer time to ponder each case individually.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec

Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable

This patch converts all of the files in builtin/ to keep the diff to a

"git worktree add" takes special care to avoid creating a new worktree
at a location already registered to an existing worktree even if that
worktree is missing (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree
resides on removable media). "git worktree move", however, is not so
careful when validating the destination location and will happily move
the source worktree atop the location of a missing worktree. This leads
to the anomalous situation of multiple worktrees being associated with
the same path, which is expressly forbidden by design. For example:
$ git clone foo.git
$ cd foo
$ git worktree add ../bar
$ git worktree add ../baz
$ rm -rf ../bar
$ git worktree move ../baz ../bar
$ git worktree list

$ git worktree remove ../bar

For each worktree removed by "git worktree prune", it reports the reason
for the removal. All reasons share the common prefix "Removing
worktrees/%s:". As new removal reasons are added, this prefix needs to
be duplicated, which is error-prone and potentially cumbersome.
Therefore, factor out the common prefix.
Although this change seems to increase the "sentence lego quotient", it
should be reasonably safe, as the reason for removal is a distinct
clause, not strictly related to the prefix. Moreover, the "worktrees" in
"Removing worktrees/%s:" is a path literal which ought not be localized,
so by factoring it out, we can more easily avoid exposing that path
fragment to translators.

"git worktree add <path>" performs various checks before approving
<path> as a valid location for the new worktree. Aside from ensuring
that <path> does not already exist, one of the questions it asks is
whether <path> is already a registered worktree. To perform this check,
it queries find_worktree() and disallows the "add" operation if
find_worktree() finds a match for <path>. As a convenience, however,
find_worktree() casts an overly wide net to allow users to identify
worktrees by shorthand in order to keep typing to a minimum. For
instance, it performs suffix matching which, given subtrees "foo/bar"
and "foo/baz", can correctly select the latter when asked only for
"baz".
"add" validation knows the exact path it is interrogating, so this sort
of heuristic-based matching is, at best, questionable for this use-case
and, at worst, may may accidentally interpret <path> as matching an
existing worktree and incorrectly report it as already registered even
when it isn't. (In fact, validate_worktree_add() already contains a
special case to avoid accidentally matching against the main worktree,
precisely due to this problem.)
Avoid the problem of potential accidental matching against an existing
worktree by instead taking advantage of find_worktree_by_path() which
matches paths deterministically, without applying any sort of magic
shorthand matching performed by find_worktree().

precious new commits are still in

However, neither of these approaches ("prune" nor "remove") is
especially convenient, and they may be unsuitable for scripting when a
tool merely wants to re-use a worktree if it exists or create it from

A given path should only ever be associated with a single registered

.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)

To address this problem, upgrade "git worktree add" validation to
allow worktree creation only if the given path is not already
associated with an existing worktree (even if the path itself is
non-existent), thus preventing such bogus worktree entries from being
created in the first place.

Certain conditions must be met for a path to be a valid candidate as the
location of a new worktree; for instance, the path must not exist or
must be an empty directory. Although the number of conditions is small,
new conditions will soon be added so factor out the existing checks into
a separate function to avoid further bloating add_worktree().

prune_worktrees() and delete_git_dir() both remove worktree
administrative entries from .git/worktrees, and their implementations
are nearly identical. The only difference is that prune_worktrees() is
also capable of removing a bogus non-worktree-related file from
.git/worktrees.
Simplify by extending delete_git_dir() to handle the little bit of
extra functionality needed by prune_worktrees(), and drop the
effectively duplicate code from the latter.

"git worktree add" learned to check out an existing branch.
* tg/worktree-add-existing-branch:
worktree: teach "add" to check out existing branches
worktree: factor out dwim_branch function
worktree: improve message when creating a new worktree
worktree: remove extra members from struct add_opts
"git worktree remove" learned that "-f" is a shorthand for
"--force" option, just like for "git worktree add".
* sb/worktree-remove-opt-force:
worktree: accept -f as short for --force for removal
Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the
basename of the path by default. If a branch with that name already
exists, the command refuses to do anything, unless the '--force' option
is given.
However we can do a little better than that, and check the branch out if
it is not checked out anywhere else. This will help users who just want
to check an existing branch out into a new worktree, and save a few
keystrokes.
As the current behaviour is to simply 'die()' when a branch with the name
of the basename of the path already exists, there are no backwards
compatibility worries here.
We will still 'die()' if the branch is checked out in another worktree,
unless the --force flag is passed.

Factor out a dwim_branch function, which takes care of the dwim'ery in
'git worktree add <path>'. It's not too much code currently, but we're
adding a new kind of dwim in a subsequent patch, at which point it makes
more sense to have it as a separate function.

Currently 'git worktree add' produces output like the following:
Preparing ../foo (identifier foo)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
The '../foo' is the path where the worktree is created, which the user
has just given on the command line. The identifier is an internal
implementation detail, which is not particularly relevant for the user
and indeed isn't mentioned explicitly anywhere in the man page.
Instead of this message, print a message that gives the user a bit more
detail of what exactly 'git worktree' is doing. There are various dwim
modes which perform some magic under the hood, which should be
helpful to users. Just from the output of the command it is not always
visible to users what exactly has happened.
Help the users a bit more by modifying the "Preparing ..." message and
adding some additional information of what 'git worktree add' did under
the hood, while not displaying the identifier anymore.
Currently there are several different cases:
- 'git worktree add -b ...' or 'git worktree add <path>', both of
which create a new branch, either through the user explicitly
requesting it, or through 'git worktree add' implicitly creating
it. This will end up with the following output:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add -B ...', which may either create a new branch if
the branch with the given name does not exist yet, or resets an
existing branch to the current HEAD, or the commit-ish given.
Depending on which action is taken, we'll end up with the following
output:
Preparing worktree (resetting branch '<branch>'; was at caa68db14)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
or:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add --detach' or 'git worktree add <path>
<commit-ish>', both of which create a new worktree with a detached
HEAD, for which we will print the following output:
Preparing worktree (detached HEAD 26da330922)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add <path> <local-branch>', which checks out the
branch and prints the following output:
Preparing worktree (checking out '<local-branch>')
HEAD is now at 47007d5 <title>
Additionally currently the "Preparing ..." line is printed to stderr,
while the "HEAD is now at ..." line is printed to stdout by 'git reset
--hard', which is used internally by 'git worktree add'. Fix this
inconsistency by printing the "Preparing ..." message to stdout as
well. As "Preparing ..." is not an error, stdout also seems like the
more appropriate output stream.

Many commands support a "--force" option, frequently abbreviated as
"-f", however, "git worktree remove"'s hand-rolled OPT_BOOL forgets
to recognize the short form, despite git-worktree.txt documenting
"-f" as supported. Replace OPT_BOOL with OPT__FORCE, which provides
"-f" for free, and makes 'remove' consistent with 'add' option
parsing (which also specifies the PARSE_OPT_NOCOMPLETE flag).

Automatic detection of worktree relocation by a user (via 'mv', for
instance) was removed by 618244e160 (worktree: stop supporting moving
worktrees manually - 2016-01-22). Prior to that,
.git/worktrees/<tag>/gitdir was updated whenever the worktree was
accessed in order to let the pruning logic know that the worktree was
"active" even if it disappeared for a while (due to being located on
removable media, for instance).
"git worktree move" has come so we don't really need this, but since
it's easy to do, perhaps we could keep supporting manual worktree move
a bit longer. Notice that when a worktree is active, the "index" file
should be updated pretty often in common case. The logic is updated to
check for index mtime to see if the worktree is alive.
The old logic of checking gitdir's mtime is dropped because nobody
updates it anyway. The new corner case is, if the index file does not
exist, we immediately remove the stale worktree. But if the "index"
file does not exist, you may have a bigger problem.

This "link" was a feature in early iterations of multiple worktree
functionality for some reason it was dropped [1]. Since nobody creates
this "link", there's no need to check it.
This is mostly used to let the user moves a worktree manually [2]. If
you move a worktree within the same file system, this hard link count
lets us know the worktree is still there even if we don't know where it
is.
We support 'worktree move' now and don't need this anymore.

"git worktree add" learned to run the post-checkout hook, just like
"git clone" runs it upon the initial checkout.
* es/worktree-add-post-checkout-hook:
worktree: add: fix 'post-checkout' not knowing new worktree location
Although "git worktree add" learned to run the 'post-checkout' hook in
ade546be47 (worktree: invoke post-checkout hook, 2017-12-07), it
neglected to change to the directory of the newly-created worktree
before running the hook. Instead, the hook runs within the directory
from which the "git worktree add" command itself was invoked, which
effectively neuters the hook since it knows nothing about the new
worktree directory.
Further, ade546be47 failed to sanitize the environment before running
the hook, which means that user-assigned values of GIT_DIR and
GIT_WORK_TREE could mislead the hook about the location of the new
worktree. In the case of "git worktree add" being run from a bare
repository, the GIT_DIR="." assigned by Git itself leaks into the hook's
environment and breaks Git commands; this is so even when the working
directory is correctly changed to the new worktree before the hook runs
since ".", relative to the new worktree directory, does not point at the
bare repository.
Fix these problems by (1) changing to the new worktree's directory
before running the hook, and (2) sanitizing the environment of GIT_DIR
and GIT_WORK_TREE so hooks can't be confused by misleading values.
Enhance the t2025 'post-checkout' tests to verify that the hook is
indeed run within the correct directory and that Git commands invoked by
the hook compute Git-dir and top-level worktree locations correctly.
While at it, also add two new tests: (1) verify that the hook is run
within the correct directory even when the new worktree is created from
a sibling worktree (as opposed to the main worktree); (2) verify that
the hook is provided with correct context when the new worktree is
created from a bare repository (test provided by Lars Schneider).
Implementation Notes:
Rather than sanitizing the environment of GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE, an
alternative would be to set them explicitly, as is already done for
other Git commands run internally by "git worktree add". This patch opts
instead to sanitize the environment in order to clearly document that
the worktree is fully functional by the time the hook is run, thus does
not require special environmental overrides.
The hook is run manually, rather than via run_hook_le(), since it needs
to change the working directory to that of the worktree, and
run_hook_le() does not provide such functionality. As this is a one-off
case, adding 'run_hook' overloads which allow the directory to be set
does not seem warranted at this time.
