It created a branch src1 based on your current HEAD for the new worktree to
track.
Actually, Nathan is using a older version of git where this isn't true,
I think git worktree add used to just create a detached head here. If
you used a current version, it would have said "(new branch 'src')" (not
'src1'), with the branch named after the basename of the worktree
directory.
oh, right. my dev server is centos 7, so that was git 2.17.1 (perhaps
I should add git to my enclave of modernity)
thanks for the hand-holding, guys!
