     Some git state is further split out under `project-objects/`.
 *   `project-objects/`: Git objects that are safe to share across multiple
     git checkouts.  The filesystem layout matches the `<project name=...`

-    for multiple checkouts of the same remote git repo to share their objects.
-    For example, you could have different branches of `foo/bar.git` checked
-    out to `foo/bar-master`, `foo/bar-release`, etc...  There will be multiple
-    trees under `projects/` for each one, but only one under `project-objects/`.

     This is used when git worktrees are enabled.
