[PATCH v6 3/4] worktree add: add --orphan flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Adds support for creating an orphan branch when adding a new worktree.
This functionality is equivalent to git switch's --orphan flag.

The original reason this feature was implemented was to allow a user
to initialise a new repository using solely the worktree oriented
workflow.

Current Behavior:
% git -C foo.git --no-pager branch -l
+ main
% git -C foo.git worktree add main/
Preparing worktree (new branch 'main')
HEAD is now at 6c93a75 a commit
%

% git init bar.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /path/to/bar.git/
% git -C bar.git --no-pager branch -l

% git -C bar.git worktree add main/
Preparing worktree (new branch 'main')
fatal: not a valid object name: 'HEAD'
%

New Behavior:

% git -C foo.git --no-pager branch -l
+ main
% git -C foo.git worktree add main/
Preparing worktree (new branch 'main')
HEAD is now at 6c93a75 a commit
%

% git init --bare bar.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /path/to/bar.git/
% git -C bar.git --no-pager branch -l

% git -C bar.git worktree add main/
Preparing worktree (new branch 'main')
fatal: invalid reference: HEAD
% git -C bar.git worktree add --orphan main main/
Preparing worktree (new branch 'main')
%
