Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] worktree add: add --orphan flag
Date: Fri, 04 Nov 2022 21:34:42 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221104213401.17393-3-jacobabel@nullpo.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221104213401.17393-1-jacobabel@nullpo.dev>
Adds support for creating an orphan branch when adding a new worktree.
This functionality is equivalent to git checkout's --orphan flag.
The original reason this feature was implemented was to allow a user
to initialise a new repository using solely the worktree oriented
workflow. Example usage included below.
$ GIT_DIR=".git" git init --bare
$ git worktree add --orphan master master/
