Perhaps this could be a bit more precise by saying something like:

    Code cleanup and make "format-patch --range-diff=<prev>
    <origin>..HEAD" not ignore <origin> when <prev> is a single
    revision.

This needs a tweak to avoid being incorrect. "git worktree add" has
understood --detach from the start. This series only teaches it -d as
an alias for --detach. So, perhaps:

    "git worktree add" learns "-d" as short for "--detach".
