Correct, I expected an index entry at "git-test-123456/test-file". If I run the following: ``` test_repo="$(mktemp -d /tmp/git-test-XXXXXXX)" cd "$test_repo" >test-file >/tmp/test-file git init git config core.worktree /tmp git add test-file git add /tmp/test-file ``` .. then with current git I get an index entry for "/tmp/test-file" but not "/tmp/git-test-123456/test-file". That is, I can add files outside the standard worktree location but not inside it. A playground example of the prior behavior (git 2.25.1) is here: https://www.onlinegdb.com/OXt2cvL8S
