[FEATURE]: Allow specifying git branch when creating a new workspace #13723
Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
Allow passing an explicit git branch name when creating a new workspace (git worktree).
- If the branch exists locally and isn't already checked out in another worktree, create a worktree for it.
- If the branch doesn't exist, create it from current HEAD.
- Keep auto-generated worktrees under opencode/* and restrict reset/delete behavior to those managed branches.

This issue might be a duplicate of or closely related to existing issues. Please check:
These issues all overlap on allowing users to specify branches when creating new workspaces. Consider consolidating efforts or cross-referencing to avoid duplicate work.

Closing this as a duplicate of the existing workspace/branch requests (#9965, #13592). Implementation appears to be in progress in #13593.
Sorry for the noise — I opened this because the feature is really needed for my workflow.
抱歉重复开了 issue。这个需求和 #9965 / #13592 重合，且 #13593 看起来已经在实现中，所以我这里先关闭。
