As just stated in a related thread, I don't think it makes sense to
have NOTES_MERGE_REF per worktree, as the notes merge is always
completely unrelated to the current worktree (or the current branch
for that matter). AFAICS this patch is all about handling per-worktree
NOTES_MERGE_REFs, and as such I'm NAK on this patch. Instead, there
should only be one NOTES_MERGE_REF per _repo_, and although we might
want to expand to allow multiple concurrent notes merges in the
future, that is still a per-repo, and not a per-worktree thing, hence
completely unrelated to David's current effort.
