Hi. `git branch` lists branches. It highlights the current branch with an asterisk and (for me) the colour green. This is handy for quick reading.

`git worktree list` lists worktrees. It would be neat to highlight the local worktree.

Another idea: `git branch -v` shows the commit subject and ahead/behind counts for each branch, eg. "[ahead 1, behind 1] avoid RegexReplace". It would be neat for `git worktree list -v` (or similar) to show the commit subject and ahead/behind counts.
