[PATCH v4 8/8] worktree: refactor `repair_worktree_after_gitdir_move()`

From
Caleb White <cdwhite3@pm.me>
Date
Nov 1, 2024, 04:39 UTC
Message-ID
<20241031-wt_relative_options-v4-8-07a3dc0f02a3@pm.me>
In-Reply-To
<20241031-wt_relative_options-v4-0-07a3dc0f02a3@pm.me>

This refactors `repair_worktree_after_gitdir_move()` to use the new `write_worktree_linking_files` function. It also preserves the relativity of the linking files; e.g., if an existing worktree used absolute paths then the repaired paths will be absolute (and visa-versa).

This also adds a test case for reinitializing a repository that has relative worktrees.
