But... I don't know how sane it is, and if anybody uses it,
but one might want to use different repositories (different
forks) for different branches, and thus different worktrees.
For example the 'next' branch might want to switch to X.Org,
because XFree86 is moribund, but keep the old repo for 'maint',
or something like that ;-)
