I am not sure at all, what Junio thought about this.

I went with current gits:
$ git worktree
usage: git worktree add [<options>] <path> [<branch>]
   or: git worktree list [<options>]
   or: git worktree lock [<options>] <path>
   or: git worktree prune [<options>]
   or: git worktree unlock <path>

where the 'add' adds a new worktree (my mental emphasis was on the
option that says: "Make the new worktree for the submodule, such
that in that worktree the submodule feels like the toplevel
repository". If 'add' is a bad naming choice, we may want to
discuss&deprecate it in a new thread as that is related to the
worktree area?)

Thanks,
Stefan
