Git prune will happily delete commits checked out in other worktrees. This is probably not desired. (Tabs have been converted to spaces in this email sadly, because GMail garbles these. This should suffice for review, and I'll send the patch as an attachment or in some other form when done so that it can be cleanly applied. Let me know if this won't work.) Thanks! Patch 1/2 follows (based on maint) ----- >From c3657cd0bb61921053fad4dd669589780881c574 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Manish Goregaokar <manishearth@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 16 May 2017 16:46:00 -0700 Subject: refs: Add for_each_worktree_ref for iterating over all worktree HEADs To ensure that `git prune` does not remove refs checked out in other worktrees, we need to include these HEADs in the set of roots. This adds the iteration function necessary to do this.
