Area

apps/desktop

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone / create work trees of the same Git repository into multiple separate directories (e.g. ~/Code/my-project, ~/Code/my-project-1, ~/Code/my-project-2, ~/Code/my-project-3).
2. With T3 Code <= 0.0.15, create a project in T3 Code for each directory so that all four appear in the sidebar.
3. Upgrade to any build after the 0.0.15 release.
4. Start the app and observe the sidebar having now only one project entry.

Expected behavior

All four projects appear in the sidebar as separate entries, each named after its directory (my-project, my-project-1, my-project-2, my-project-3).

Actual behavior

Only one project entry remains in the sidebar (the last-created project for a given workspace root, e.g. my-project-2). The other three projects silently disappear.

After investigating it seems this change has been done on purpose. It probably leans toward a UX preference where I personally prefer to treat each worktree as a separated-long-living repo rather ephemeral-delete-after-merge one.

For that reason I'd not open a PR to avoid the noise. Yet, the change is simple (for now), available on this commit
