limb 0.1.0

A focused CLI for git worktree management
Documentation
//! Minimal `git` CLI wrappers.
//!
//! Two functions: [`capture`] for subcommands whose stdout we need to parse,
//! and [`run`] for subcommands whose status we just care about. Both shell
//! out to the system `git` binary via `-C <cwd>` rather than chdir'ing.
//! safe under concurrent callers.
//!
//! Argument values are passed as array elements (never interpolated into a
//! shell string), so shell-metacharacters in inputs cannot inject commands.
