What's Wrong?

"When creating a new session and choosing a directory unrelated to the current project, Claude Code rooted the session in an existing worktree and added the chosen directory as secondary instead of starting fresh."

What Should Happen?

it should open my new session inside the folder I select. (note, I'm using the new claude code desktop, not the terminal version)

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have an existing project with worktrees
2. click New Session
3. Select a folder outside the existing project
4. See that it puts that new folder into the git subtree and makes it part of the existing session for that overall project
