I understand now. Perhaps it's just me, but when I see the term
"worktree", I automatically think "linked worktre" (what you call
"secondary"), and don't usually think of the main worktree. But this
also fixes the problem when a bare repository is moved. So...

Okay. In that case, perhaps a slight modification of your wording would work?

    "git worktree" gained a "repair" subcommand to help users recover
    after moving the worktrees or repository manually without telling
    Git.  Also, "git init --separate-git-dir" no longer corrupts
    administrative data related to linked worktrees.
