Subject: [PATCH] prune: strategies for linked checkouts

(alias R=$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/<id>)

 - linked checkouts are supposed to keep its location in $R/gitdir up
   to date. The use case is auto fixup after a manual checkout move.

 - linked checkouts are supposed to update mtime of $R/gitdir. If
   $R/gitdir's mtime is older than a limit, and it points to nowhere,
   worktrees/<id> is to be pruned.

 - If $R/locked exists, worktrees/<id> is not supposed to be pruned. If
   $R/locked exists and $R/gitdir's mtime is older than a really long
   limit, warn about old unused repo.

 - "git checkout --to" is supposed to make a hard link named $R/link
   pointing to the .git file on supported file systems to help detect
   the user manually deleting the checkout. If $R/link exists and its
   link count is greated than 1, the repo is kept.

 $GIT_DIR or $GIT_COMMON_DIR when you need to directly access something
 inside $GIT_DIR. Use `git rev-parse --git-path` to get the final path.
 
+When you are done with a linked working tree you can simply delete it.
+You can clean up any stale $GIT_DIR/worktrees entries via `git prune
+--worktrees` in the main worktree or any linked worktree.
+
+If you move a linked working directory to another file system, or
+within a file system that does not support hard links, you need to run
+at least one git command inside the linked working directory
+(e.g. `git status`) in order to update its entry in $GIT_DIR/worktrees
+so that it does not get automatically removed.
+
+To prevent `git prune --worktrees` from deleting a $GIT_DIR/worktrees
+entry (which can be useful in some situations, such as when the
+entry's working tree is stored on a portable device), add a file named
+'locked' to the entry's directory. The file contains the reason in
+plain text. For example, if a linked working tree's `.git` file points
+to `/path/main/.git/worktrees/test-next` then a file named
+`/path/main/.git/worktrees/test-next/locked` will prevent the
+`test-next` entry from being pruned.  See
+linkgit:gitrepository-layout[5] for details.
