I haven't been following the discussion of this feature on the mailing list, so I apologize if these changes overlap with any in-flight patches, and these changes should definitely be checked over by somebody more familiar with the feature. These patches mostly fix what seem like inconsistencies in the documentation. The last patch contains some wordsmithing. Feel free to squash them together if you prefer.

This patch series is also available from my GitHub account [1] as branch "worktree-docs".

Michael Haggerty (6):
  worktree: consistently use term "linked working tree" in manpages
  worktree: remove references to "git checkout --to" from the manpage
  worktree: fix incorrect references to file "locked"
  worktree: the "locked" mechanism is already implemented
  config.txt: refer to "git worktree prune", not "prune --worktree"
  worktree: wordsmith worktree-related manpages
