Presumably you're using 'master'. The "Switched to a new branch" message is an artifact of using git-checkout for the back-end operation, however, what is queued in 'pu' no long uses git-checkout at all, so that message is gone. I agree with Duy that s/Enter/Prepare/ would be a good idea. I don't think we want to drop the message altogether as Junio suggested since other messages such as "Checking out files:..." and "HEAD is now at...." follow it, thus "Prepare..." provides context indicating that those additional messages apply to the new worktree rather than the current one. >> The other: >> >> linked worktrees are prefect for short term tests on detached heads. >> Even the manual page advertises detach.

Actually it's still a problem with 'pu' > because the branch 'gitwtt' is created unnecessarily. Yep. Again, that fatal error is an artifact from git-checkout being used as the back-end on 'master'. What is queued on 'pu' doesn't fail, however, as Duy notes, the auto-vivication incorrectly kicks in and creates a new branch unnecessarily. That'll have to be fixed in v3.
