When I perform these actions, I see a "fatal error" message which
clearly indicates failure, not success:
% git worktree add ../foo bar
Preparing worktree (checking out 'bar')
fatal: 'bar' is already checked out at '.../wherever'
Is your installation not showing the "fatal error" message?
Or, are you saying that the "Preparing worktree" message is
misleading? I read that message as telling me what the command is
trying to do (i.e. "Preparing"), and the error happens as it makes the
attempts, which seems logical to me, thus I don't see anything
misleading in that.
Are you reading it differently, as if it is saying that it already
performed that action (i.e. "Prepared")?
