Summary

  • Adds real-time validation when creating worktrees to prevent duplicate branch names
  • Shows red error text "Branch already exists" when user enters an existing branch name
  • Validates against both local and remote branches
  • Prevents worktree creation if branch name conflicts with existing branches

Changes

  • Added error message element in the branch name input field
  • Implemented validateBranchName() function to check against existing branches
  • Added input event listener for real-time validation
  • Added validation check before worktree creation
  • Reset validation state when modal is closed or session created

Test plan

  • Build passes
  • All tests pass
  • Manual testing: Try creating a worktree with an existing branch name and verify error appears
  • Manual testing: Verify error clears when valid branch name is entered
  • Manual testing: Verify creation is blocked when branch exists
