Drop the required main worktree model. Store bare repos under $XDG_DATA_HOME/git-wt/repos/<name>.git and create on-demand worktrees under $GIT_WT_WORKTREE_ROOT (default ~/worktrees). Add repo add/list/remove, --repo/--current (or interactive picker) on worktree commands, rewrite migrate to register bare + rehome all worktrees, remove off, and update the zsh wrapper accordingly. Migrate configures bare origin fetch tracking like repo add, and repository names are normalized by stripping a trailing .git suffix.
Move the lipgloss table border and cell styling used by worktree list into newOutputTable so other commands can reuse the same presentation.
Render git-wt repo list with the same bordered table style as git-wt list, using Name and Path columns.
Replace a leading $HOME prefix with ~ when rendering bare repository paths in git-wt repo list.
Have the zsh wrapper leave the worktree before remove runs and cd to $HOME afterward. Warn when remove deletes the current directory.
When cwd is inside a managed worktree, list/prune/remove resolve the registered repo automatically so --current is only needed on create.
When migrate registers a plain clone that only has a clean checkout of origin/HEAD, keep the bare repo only and drop the source tree instead of creating a managed default-branch worktree. Have the zsh wrapper cd to HOME after migrate as well as remove, so the shell does not stay in a path migrate may have deleted or moved.
Git porcelain paths on macOS often use /private/var while constructed paths use /var. Compare and walk paths via canonical form so managed worktree detection, empty-parent cleanup, and bare-repo checks agree.
Show repository name in git-wt list. Outside a managed worktree, or with --all, include every registered repository; inside a worktree, scope to that repository unless --all or --repo is given.
Register cobra flag completion for --repo on create/list/remove/prune. Fix the zsh completer to declare _arguments state variables, complete list --all, nested worktree names for switch/remove, and repo remove names.

git init --bare keeps HEAD on init.defaultBranch (often master on GitHub Actions) even after only main is pushed. Set HEAD to main so clones, migrate, and remote set-head --auto behave the same locally and in CI.

Now stores bare repos under
$XDG_DATA_HOME(e.g.,~/.local/share/git-wt/repos) rather than even having a "main" worktree. Creates on-demand worktrees under$GIT_WT_WORKTREE_ROOT(default~/worktrees).
