The output from "git worktree list" may be more than 20 lines, but isn't your terminal taller than 20 lines ;-)? Since very early days of Git, we have created .git/description file that is not used very much (I think it is shown in gitweb). Perhaps worktree should have an equivalent in per-worktree part of their .git/ directory and "git worktree list --verbose" can use its contents in addition to the additional pieces information it already shows, or something like that, perhaps?
