This is required by git-worktree.txt, stating that the main worktree is
the first line (especially in --porcelain mode when we can't just change
behavior at will).
There's only one case when get_worktrees() may skip main worktree, when
parse_ref() fails. Update the code so that we keep first item as main
worktree and return something sensible in this case:
- In user-friendly mode, since we're not constraint by anything,
returning "(error)" should do the job (we already show "(detached
HEAD)" which is not machine-friendly). Actually errors should be
printed on stderr by parse_ref() (*)
- In plumbing mode, we do not show neither 'bare', 'detached' or
'branch ...', which is possible by the format description if I read
it right.
Careful readers may realize that when the local variable "head_ref" in
get_main_worktree() is emptied, add_head_info() will do nothing to
wt->head_sha1. But that's ok because head_sha1 is zero-ized in the
previous patch.
(*) Well, it does not. But it's supposed to be a stop gap implementation
until we can reuse refs code to parse "ref: " stuff in HEAD, from
resolve_refs_unsafe(). Now may be the time since refs refactoring is
mostly done.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
