worktree: add --guess-remote flag to add subcommand
Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the basename of the <path>, that matches the HEAD of whichever worktree we were on when calling "git worktree add <path>". It's sometimes useful to have 'git worktree add <path> behave more like the dwim machinery in 'git checkout <new-branch>', i.e. check if the new branch name, derived from the basename of the <path>, uniquely matches the branch name of a remote-tracking branch, and if so check out that branch and set the upstream to the remote-tracking branch. Add a new --guess-remote option that enables exactly that behaviour. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gummerer <t.gummerer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
