Changed

Fixed

  • Fixed worktree directory naming for bare repositories ending in .git

Added

  • Support for bare git repositories (#40)
  • autowt now works from directories containing bare repositories (*.git directories), matching git worktree add behavior

Changed

Fixed

  • Fixed directory_pattern configuration being completely ignored when creating worktrees (#39)
