I wonder if this could be reworded so it's clearer that "git worktree repair" is a new command, and to mention fixes to "git init --separate-git-dir". Perhaps like this?

    "git worktree" gained a "repair" subcommand to help users recover
    from problems arising from factors outside of Git's control.
    Also, "git init --separate-git-dir" no longer corrupts
    administrative data related to linked worktrees.
