Description
I think there is an error in the Working Directory for a branch, particularly if a branch is associated with a WorkTree.
It always shows the same path as the Repository. However if a branch is associated with a work tree, it's working directory is probably not the same as the repository.
- Create a work tree and an associated branch.
- Create the Repository in code (pointing to the Repositories path).
- Examine all the branches by iterating through Repos.Branches.
- The working directory of the new branch is pointing to the working directory of the Repository, not the path to the work tree.

I know how to get the correct path if you think it is a bug.
Contributor guide
First steps

- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
No source file or test is named. Reproduce the listed work-tree scenario, then trace Repos.Branches and the branch Working Directory value to compare it with the Repository path. Done means a branch associated with a work tree reports that work tree's path rather than the repository's path, with regression coverage if the project has an applicable test location.
