[PATCH 00/16] worktree: use "git reset --hard" to populate worktree

[Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com>]

This is a follow-on series to [1], which migrated "git checkout --to"
functionality to "git worktree add". That series continued using "git
checkout" for the initial population of the new worktree, which required
git-checkout to have too intimate knowledge that it was operating in a
newly created worktree.

This series eliminates git-checkout from the picture by instead
employing "git reset --hard"[2] to populate the new worktree initially.

It is built atop 1eb07d8 (worktree: add: auto-vivify new branch when
<branch> is omitted, 2015-07-06), currently in 'next', which is
es/worktree-add except for the final patch (which retires
--ignore-other-worktrees) since the intention[3] was to drop that patch.
