Open the new Worktree in new Visual Studio Code instance

[rhalaly]

First, thank you for this wonderful extension!

I tried to add a new Worktree, but after I added it, the existing VSCode restarted with the new folder. I think it is better to open a new instance of VSCode instead.

I use Worktrees for working on several branches to prevent switching. But the extension enforces me to switch between worktrees.

Can it open a new instance instead?

Hi @rhalaly,

Great idea!

I implemented a solution for your needs.

You can add this property "vsCodeGitWorktrees.move.openNewVscodeWindow": true to your vscode settings and will be able to open new vscode instances when you switch or create a worktree.

I hope the implementation suits you!

If you have a better idea, please suggest it.
