I'm working on some server-side software to do a merge. By using git
worktree it's possible to check out a given branch for a bare repo and
merge another branch into it. It's very fast, even with large repositories.
The only exception seems to be merging to master. When I do *git worktree
add /tmp/path/to/worktree master*, I get an error:
fatal: 'master' is already checked out at '/path/to/bare/repo'
But this is clearly not true, *git worktree list* gives:
/path/to/bare/repo (bare)
...and of course, there is no work tree at that path, just the bare repo
files you'd expect.
This seems like an odd edge-case. Can someone explain what I'm seeing, and
if there's a workaround?
Thanks!
M.
