Failed worktree add doesn't clean-up #2
Description
When a worktree add with --branch option fails because the destination dir already exists, the newly created branch is not cleaned up as I expected. When I remove the offending destination dir, and re-run the worktree add, it fails because of existing branch:
bio:radu [Linux] ~/proj/vscode.config (start)
$ git worktree add -b gnumake/misplaced ../../vscode-autotools/vendor/gnumake/.vscode start
Preparing worktree (new branch 'gnumake/misplaced')
- fatal: '../../vscode-autotools/vendor/gnumake/.vscode' already exists
bio:radu [Linux] ~/proj/vscode.config (start)
$ git worktree add -b gnumake/misplaced ../../vscode-autotools/vendor/gnumake/.vscode start
Preparing worktree (new branch 'gnumake/misplaced')
- fatal: a branch named 'gnumake/misplaced' already exists
bio:radu [Linux] ~/proj/vscode.config (start)
$ git branch -d gnumake/misplaced
Deleted branch gnumake/misplaced (was f36fbd7).
bio:radu [Linux] ~/proj/vscode.config (start)
$ git worktree add -b gnumake/misplaced ../../vscode-autotools/vendor/gnumake/.vscode start
Preparing worktree (new branch 'gnumake/misplaced')
+ HEAD is now at f36fbd7 Start of vscode.config
