Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] make git worktree add dwim more

From: Thomas Gummerer <[email-masked]>

Sorry about the noise with v2 and v3 so quickly one after another.  I
only too late realized that the new dwim for 'add <path> <branch>'
doesn't make much sense if -b or --detach are given, and it's better
to keep on erroring out in these cases.

The previous rounds were at https://public-inbox.org/git/[email-masked]/
and https://public-inbox.org/git/[email-masked]/.

In case anybody already started reading v2, an interdiff between the
two versions is below:
