FWIW, I have a bare repo with the following config file

[core]
	repositoryformatversion = 0
	filemode = true
	bare = true
	logallrefupdates = true
[remote "origin"]
	url = https://cgit-beta.freebsd.org/src.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	fetch = +refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*
[branch "main"]
	remote = origin
	merge = refs/heads/main

/usr/src is a worktree and everything seems to be working fine.

I manually converted to a bare repo (first testing this with a much
smaller repo) and fixed up various refs. But probably safer to
just start from scratch:

git clone --bare https://cgit-beta.freebsd.org/src.git
cd src.git
git fetch origin 'refs/notes/*:refs/notes/origin/*' # <<< not sure about this....
	# don't recall if I manually added the second fetch line in the config file.
	# but notes get fetched fine; though I don't understand why 100MB+ get
	# downloaded every time even though only a few files change.

git worktree add <local-current-path> main
git worktree add <local-stable/12-path> stable/12

etc.
