I think you mean to say there is a variable 'worktree' variable
available via the config variable 'core.worktree' or environment
variable GIT_WORK_TREE, or command-line option --work-tree that should
do the trick (no 'git worktree' command exists as far as I can see):
% man git-config
[...]
core.worktree
Set the path to the working tree. The value will not be used in
combination with repositories found automatically in a .git
directory (i.e. $GIT_DIR is not set). This can be overriden by the
GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable and the --work-tree command line
option.
[...]
% man git
[...]
--work-tree=<path>
Set the path to the working tree. The value will not be used in
combination with repositories found automatically in a .git
directory (i.e. $GIT_DIR is not set). This can also be controlled
by setting the GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable and the
core.worktree configuration variable.
