Problem with master (but not with pu) because "-b gitwtt" is
automatically added. I think this is 1eb07d8 (worktree: add:
auto-vivify new branch when <branch> is omitted - 2015-07-06)
forgetting about --detach. Actually it's still a problem with 'pu'
because the branch 'gitwtt' is created unnecessarily.
