| worktree.guessRemote:: | |
| If no branch is specified and neither `-b` nor `-B` nor | |
| `--detach` is used, then `git worktree add` defaults to | |
| creating a new branch from HEAD. If `worktree.guessRemote` is | |
| set to true, `worktree add` tries to find a remote-tracking | |
| branch whose name uniquely matches the new branch name. If | |
| such a branch exists, it is checked out and set as "upstream" | |
| for the new branch. If no such match can be found, it falls | |
| back to creating a new branch from the current HEAD. | |
| worktree.useRelativePaths:: | |
| Link worktrees using relative paths (when "true") or absolute | |
| paths (when "false"). This is particularly useful for setups | |
| where the repository and worktrees may be moved between | |
| different locations or environments. Defaults to "false". | |
| + | |
| Note that setting `worktree.useRelativePaths` to "true" implies enabling the | |
| `extension.relativeWorktrees` config (see linkgit:git-config[1]), | |
| thus making it incompatible with older versions of Git. |
