My first thought was "how do I know which branch I'm on then if they are all green?" but then the current worktree's branch would have a "*" in front while other worktree's do not. Perhaps worth mentioning in the commit message.

It may be better though to have a different color code for other worktree's branch, we can still default the color to green, but people who rely on colors rather than "*" can choose a different color.
