While working with the worktree based git workflow, I realised that setting
up a new git repository required switching between the traditional and
worktree based workflows. Searching online I found a SO answer [1] which
seemed to support this and which indicated that adding support for this should
not be technically difficult.
Note: This is my first patchset for git so please let me know if there's anything
I should do differently to improve contributions in the future.
This patchset has three parts:
* adding `-B` to the usage docs (noticed during dev and it seemed too small
to justify a separate submission)
* switching from `git reset --hard` to `git checkout` for worktree checkout
* adding orphan branch functionality (as is present in `git-checkout`)
to `git-worktree-add`
