Right.  I mistyped it a few times on the command line as well, but
then the command's output reminded me that I messed up.  Alas, no such
reminder when writing the email...

OK, got it.

I didn't look yesterday at all, but now I did, and, unfortunately, see
two more bugs, and one of them is a "proper" bug leading to bogus
output:

  $ git -C WT/ rev-parse --git-path logs/refs --git-path logs/refs/
  /home/szeder/src/git/.git/logs/refs
  /home/szeder/src/git/.git/worktrees/WT/logs/refs/
