All good.

I have a bit to say about this below.

The actual code change to fix this bug is about as minimal as it gets,
but the explanation you've written here is lengthy enough and nicely
self-contained that it suggests splitting it off to its own patch. And
since you can re-use this paragraph almost verbatim as the commit
message, it shouldn't require much work to do so. On the other hand,
it is itself not necessarily worth a re-roll, but if you do re-roll,
perhaps it's worth considering.

I was momentarily confused by the branch named `locked` with the
`locked` attribute in the first new stanza. Perhaps take a hint from
the second new stanza and call the first one `locked-no-reason`:

    worktree /path/to/linked-worktree-locked-no-reason
    HEAD 5678abc5678abc5678abc5678abc5678abc5678c
    branch refs/heads/locked-no-reason
    locked

Again, though, not worth a re-roll.

This needs a change, and it's totally my fault that it does. In my
previous review, I mentioned that if the lock reason contains special
characters, we want those special characters escaped and the reason
quoted, but _only_ if it contains special characters. However, I then
incorrectly said to call quote_c_style() with CQUOTE_NODQ to achieve
that behavior. In fact, CQUOTE_NODQ gives us the wrong behavior since
it avoids quoting the string which, as Phillip pointed out, makes it
impossible to distinguish between a string which just happens to
contain the two-character sequence '\' and 'n', and an escaped newline
"\n". So, the above should really be:

    quote_c_style(reason, &sb, NULL, 0);

The example in the commit message should be adjusted to account for
this change, as well:

    In porcelain mode, if the lock reason contains special characters
    such as newlines, they are escaped with backslashes and the entire
    reason is enclosed in double quotes. For example:

    $ git worktree list --porcelain
    ...
    locked "worktree's path mounted in\nremovable device"
    ...

And, of course, the new test will need a slight adjustment.

So, the purpose of the `unlocked` worktree in this test is to prove
that it didn't accidentally get annotated with `locked`? (Since, if it
did get annotated, then `actual` would contain too many lines and not
match `expect`.) Is that correct?

The trailing "\n\n" is unneeded. Due to the way `$(...)` expansion
works (dropping trailing whitespace), you'll get the same successful
test result with:

    printf "locked\nreason\n" >reason_lf &&
    printf "locked\r\nreason\n" >reason_crlf &&

and even with:

    printf "locked\nreason" >reason_lf &&
    printf "locked\r\nreason" >reason_crlf &&

> +       git worktree lock locked_lf --reason "$(cat reason_lf)" &&
> +       git worktree lock locked_crlf --reason "$(cat reason_crlf)" &&

You could also just embed the `printf`'s here rather than using these
temporary files.

    git worktree lock --reason $(printf "...") <path> &&

Or, if we care only about testing LF, and not about CRLF, even this would work:

    git worktree lock --reason "reason with
    newline" <path> &&

but that gets a bit ugly.

Anyhow, all the line terminator commentary about this test is a matter
of personal taste, probably not worth a re-roll or even changing.
