What problem does it solve?

It solves the friction and context loss of using git checkout when you want to work on multiple branches safely and independently at the same time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Branch-per-directory worktrees: creates one directory per branch so switching context is as simple as cding.
  • Fuzzy worktree navigation: resolves branch/worktree names using exact, substring, and Jaro-Winkler matching.
  • Safe sync and cleanup: fetches/prunes and removes stale worktrees while protecting the HEAD branch.
  • Shell wrapper integration: prints machine-readable paths on stdout so an interactive wrapper can automatically cd for you.

Quick Start

Convert an existing repo into a git-work layout by running: go to your repo directory and execute gw init.
