If so, perhaps this a manifestation of the problem where .git/worktrees//gitdir got incorrectly "refreshed" following the move. This issue was "addressed" by 618244e (worktree: stop supporting moving worktrees manually, 2016-01-22)[1], which is in git 2.7.2. Unfortunately, if your gitdir files are already corrupt, upgrading to git 2.7.2 won't recover them; you'll have to fix them manually as described by the documentation update included with 618244e[1].

Is it possible that you had this problem since before the bug was fixed and are just noticing it now? If you look in '/home/k/workspace/moyo/.git/worktrees/` I suspect that there are 3 dirs in there, two of which have a file 'gitdir' which have the contents '.git'. These _should_ instead point to the '.git' file in your other work trees. It would be nice to know the last time that those bad worktrees were updated. If you know where the other worktrees are located, then you should be able to manually update this file in each of the worktree dirs. Alternatively, you can manually remove the bad linked worktrees (`rm -r .git/worktrees/bad_wt`).

Cannot checkout a branch / worktree shows multiple branches for the same directory
Hi, I stumbled upon an interesting problem when checking out a branch. I had to switch to a testing branch to merge in some changes from yet another branch, but when I tried to check out the testing branch I got a message saying that I'm already on the target branch. I used worktree a few times, but the checkouts were always in their own directories. It crossed my mind that this behaviour may be related, so I took a look at the worktree list and noticed that according to that list there are three branches at the same time in one directory. It may be a conicidence and I have no confidence in saying that these issues are related. Can someone shed some light on this issue for me? $ git --version git version 2.7.0.235.g07c314d $ git status -uno -sb ## ticket-22444 M src/core/parsers/ParserBase.py M src/core/parsers/test/ParserBase_test.py $ git stash Saved working directory and index state WIP on ticket-22444: 7c5edaa #22444 refactoring HEAD is now at 7c5edaa #22444 refactoring $ git co testing fatal: 'testing' is already checked out at '/home/k/workspace/moyo' $ pwd /home/k/workspace/moyo $ git branch | grep '*' * ticket-22444 $ git worktree list /home/k/workspace/moyo 7c5edaa [ticket-22444] /var/home/k/moyo-lsf 349613d (detached HEAD) /home/k/workspace/moyo 265b7f9 (detached HEAD) /home/k/workspace/moyo c852282 [testing] $ uname -a Linux k 3.13.0-83-generic #127-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 11 00:25:37 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS" Thanks, Krzysztof -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
