It's not quite clear from this description that it is bad for deletion
to succeed in the second case. Perhaps:

    s/deleting is allowed/deletion incorrectly succeeds/

would make it more clear.

This version of the patch is nicer. Thanks. See a couple minor
comments below which may or may not be worth a re-roll (you decide).

Thanks for an example of the new behavior. It's also helpful to
reviewers if you use this space to explain what changed since the
previous version, and to provide a link to the previous attempt, like
this[1].

This could be stated more concisely as:

    "Cannot delete branch '%s' checked out at '%s'"

Would it make sense to show all worktrees at which this branch is
checked out, rather than only one, or is that not worth the effort and
extra code ugliness?
