Subject: [PATCH v3] checkout/switch: disallow checking out same branch in multiple worktrees
Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2023 21:53:24 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230119055325.1013-1-carenas@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230118061527.76218-1-carenas@gmail.com>

Commands `git switch -C` and `git checkout -B` neglect to check whether
the provided branch is already checked out in some other worktree, as
shown by the following:

  $ git worktree list
  .../foo    beefb00f [main]
  $ git worktree add ../other
  Preparing worktree (new branch 'other')
  HEAD is now at beefb00f first
  $ cd ../other
  $ git switch -C main
  Switched to and reset branch 'main'
  $ git worktree list
  .../foo    beefb00f [main]
  .../other  beefb00f [main]

Fix this problem by teaching `git switch -C` and `git checkout -B` to
check whether the branch in question is already checked out elsewhere
by expanding on the existing checks that are being used by their non
force variants.

Unlike what it is done for `git switch` and `git checkout`, that have
an historical exception to ignore other workspaces if the branch to
check is the current one (as required when called as part of other
tools), the logic implemented is more strict and will require the user
to invoke the command with `--ignore-other-worktrees` to explicitly
indicate they want the risky behaviour.

This matches the current behaviour of `git branch -f` and is safer, for
more details see the tests in t2400.
