Will replace the one in 'pu'.  A few things I noticed:

 * Documentation and messages talk about "working tree" and "working
   directory" when they refer to "worktree", which is not a normal
   "working tree".  I think this was done as an attempt to avoid
   being too precise and technical in phrasing, but I suspect that
   is a false reader-friendliness.  At least, "working directory" in
   messages should be "worktree", e.g.

	wt = find_worktree(...);
	if (!wt)
        	die("'%s' is not a working directory", av[0]);

   does not make much sense (imagine "git wt lock ." and being told
   that '.' is not a working directory).

 * You are probably trying to be frugal by not introducing a
   separate bit for is_lock_checked to struct worktre and instead
   using a sentinel value for lock_reason, but I think that is a
   false economy, after seeing that you have to cast away constness
   in number of places and having to be extra careful not to free
   that sentinel value.

Thanks.
