This sounds too pessimistic. There is now a need to introduce incompatible change, because there is no way to make config separation. There would be a need to increase the version regularly in case of previous option which suggested to hardcode per-worktree versions, so that each change of their list would need a version increase. Now there is no need to increase the version beyond 1, so it can be "version 0 is like in older gits, version 1 is separated config file, and version 2 will never happen" :) The extension parameter coould even be called like "worktreeConfig" and be boolean.
