I think -D, as a forced form, should allow deleting branches on other worktrees, we could simply detach the worktree first. It's worth noting that before that commit, -D refuses to delete branch on current worktree as well and f292244 simply applies the same behavior on other worktrees. If we change the -D behavior about deleting branches on other worktrees, we may need to consider to keep the behavior on current branch, or treat it equally as any other worktrees. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
