 Solution

The slit plane is connected and contains $D$. If two holomorphic functions on it extend the same $f$, their difference vanishes on the nonempty open disc $D$. The identity theorem forces their difference to vanish on the entire slit plane. Thus there is at most one analytic extension of the chosen $f$. Choosing the opposite square root initially changes that chosen function; it does not produce two extensions of the same function.
