Deleting a worktree after merging a PR into a branch mixes the main branch with the worktree #8519
Description
Description
After merging a PR that was created from a worktree (test_1) into a branch, a button will appear for deleting the brach and its remote. Clicking on that deletes the branch and its remote that was associated with the worktree but mixes the main branch and the worktree's folder together somehow.
git worktree list
/Volumes/Work/git-projects/own/sandbox c598839 [develop]
/Volumes/Work/git-projects/own/sandbox.worktrees/test_1 1858442 [main]
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a main branch
- Create a develop branch from main
- Create a worktree from develop
- Switch to the worktree then submit some changes and push to origin
- Create a PR from the worktree
- Merge the PR into the develop branch
- Click on the delete branch button
- Delete the branch (worktree this time) and its remote
- Run this command:
git worktree list - The worktree folder still exists and somehow the main branch is associated with it
- For restoring the main branch original behaviour we have to delete the worktree folder manually then prune the worktree that's folder doesn't exist anymore with this command
git worktree prune -v
Expected Behavior
The worktree folder, its branch & remote are deleted and no previous branches are associated with the deleted worktree's folder.
Actual Behavior
The deleted worktree's folder remains on disk & associated with the main branch.
