1eb07d829f worktree: add: auto-vivify new branch when <branch> is omitted
As a convenience, when <branch> is omitted from "git worktree <path>
<branch>" and neither -b nor -B is used, automatically create a new
branch named after <path>, as if "-b $(basename <path>)" was specified.
Thus, "git worktree add ../hotfix" creates a new branch named "hotfix"
and associates it with new worktree "../hotfix".

0f4af3b9ea worktree: add: make -b/-B default to HEAD when <branch> is omitted
As a convenience, like "git branch" and "git checkout -b", make
"git worktree add -b <newbranch> <path> <branch>" default to HEAD when
<branch> is omitted.

cbdf60fa18 worktree: add -b/-B options
One of git-worktree's roles is to populate the new worktree, much like
git-checkout, and thus, for convenience, ought to support several of the
same shortcuts. Toward this goal, add -b/-B options to create a new
branch and check it out in the new worktree.

(For brevity, only -b is mentioned in the synopsis; -B is omitted.)

f43254440d worktree: add --force option
By default, "git worktree add" refuses to create a new worktree when
the requested branch is already checked out elsewhere. Add a --force
option to override this safeguard.

fc56361f58 worktree: introduce "add" command
The plan is to relocate "git checkout --to" functionality to "git
worktree add". As a first step, introduce a bare-bones git-worktree
"add" command along with documentation. At this stage, "git worktree
add" merely invokes "git checkout --to" behind the scenes, but an
upcoming patch will move the actual functionality
(checkout.c:prepare_linked_checkout() and its helpers) to worktree.c.

a8ba5dd7b1 Documentation/git-worktree: add high-level 'lock' overview
Due to the (current) absence of a "git worktree lock" command, locking
a worktree's administrative files to prevent automatic pruning is a
manual task, necessarily requiring low-level understanding of linked
worktree functionality. However, this level of detail does not belong
in the high-level DESCRIPTION section, so add a generalized discussion
of locking to DESCRIPTION and move the technical information to DETAILS.

af189b4cbe Documentation/git-worktree: split technical info from general description
The DESCRIPTION section should provide a high-level overview of linked
worktree functionality to bring users up to speed quickly, without
overloading them with low-level details, so relocate the technical
information to a new DETAILS section.

93a36493e2 Documentation: move linked worktree description from checkout to worktree
Now that the git-worktree command exists, its documentation page is the
natural place for the linked worktree description to reside. Relocate
the "MULTIPLE WORKING TREES" description verbatim from git-checkout.txt
to git-worktree.txt.

df0b6cfbda worktree: new place for "git prune --worktrees"
Commit 23af91d (prune: strategies for linked checkouts - 2014-11-30)
adds "--worktrees" to "git prune" without realizing that "git prune" is
for object database only. This patch moves the same functionality to a
new command "git worktree".
