Yes, I think this structure needs to be reflected more clearly in the
manual.  I'll propose some new language when I get back to this.

In the meantime, one more question. What are the considerations for the
location of the worktree? If possible, I think it would be a good idea
for the manual to make a recommendation for the worktree location and
also provide a suitable warning about where *not* to put the worktree,
if needed.

Thanks for your help.

Tom
