Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] worktree: use 'prune' instead of 'expire' in help text
Message-ID: <ff4732b72a0d8c97c668167308039918362ffb9c.1766168169.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <pull.2135.v2.git.git.1766168169.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Sam Bostock <sam.bostock@shopify.com>

Use 'prune' instead of 'expire' when describing the --expire option's
effect on missing worktrees, since the terminology is clearer.
