From ef00e18247bed72e663cab90a99e973aa32a502a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Haller Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2026 08:03:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Refuse to fast-forward a branch being rebased or bisected in a worktree The worktree loader associates a worktree that is mid-rebase or mid-bisect with the branch involved, even though its HEAD is detached. Fast-forwarding such a branch therefore ran the fast-forward in that worktree. This moved the detached HEAD and put the upstream commits into the rebase in progress, while the branch stayed where it was. Remember in the worktree model when its branch comes from a rebase or bisect, and refuse to fast-forward the branch in that case. Updating only the ref is no option for a rebase; the rebase writes the branch when it finishes.
