Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the new session window while creating a worktree, using the reported Windows setup, and inspect how the branch list is populated. Done means the list contains only existing local branches and worktrees, without branches from deleted worktrees.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In the new session window while using a new worktree, I see previous worktree branches that have already been removed. This clutters the list of the branches to create a new worktree from.

Ideal view: The branch list should only show the existing local branches and worktrees and should not show previous deleted worktree branches.
