Sure -- and I (at least half-)expected that: I am experimenting, so at
this stage, I expect a loty of stuff to be tried and tossed.

And that part's fine.

Where I'm having a problem is for the (usual) case of "no hash change",

fetch --all" copies those to my local private mirror, but I don't see
how to get my "worktree" updated.

Thanks.
