Subject: 'git worktree repair' can't repair when main and linked worktrees are moved
Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2020 18:14:37 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <63AC7AC2-5D32-479B-BF9E-0E5C31351A1B@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I've had to move all my Git clones to a new filesystem.
Several of them use secondary worktrees, and all are 
at the same level ex:

$ ls code
git git2 git3 other other2 other3 ...

I had hoped to use the new 'git worktree repair' command
but it seems it does not work for this use case. 

I tried several things:

( cd git && git repair )
( cd git && git repair ../git2 )
( cd git && git repair /old/path/to/old/filesystem/git2 )
( cd git2 && git repair /old/path/to/old/filesystem/git2 )
( cd git2 && git repair ../git )

None of them work. Note that /old/path/to/old/filesystem/
does not exist anymore.

Is this supposed to work ? Or it's not something that 
'git worktree repair' can currently cope with ?

P.S. I know how to repair the worktrees manuallly, I just
wanted to test if 'repair' could help me.

Cheers,

Philippe.
