The command accesses default_abbrev (defined in environment.c and is updated via core.abbrev configuration), but never makes any call to git_config(). The output from "worktree list" ignores the abbrev setting for this reason. Make a call to git_config() to read the default set of configuration variables at the beginning of the command.
