git-worktree

Manage Git worktrees for parallel development by using a single manager script to create new worktrees from main, list existing ones, switch directories, and clean up inactive branches with safety prompts.

Copy environment files automatically when creating a new Git worktree by running the manager script, which duplicates env files into the new worktree directory and updates .gitignore entries to protect sensitive data.

The safest way to clean up inactive Git worktrees is using a manager script that enforces explicit confirmation prompts before executing destructive cleanup actions, preserving main branch integrity.

Yes, you can switch between Git worktrees with automatic directory changes by executing the worktree manager script, which handles the underlying branch switching and environment file synchronization seamlessly.

No, you do not need to manually update .gitignore when setting up Git worktrees because the manager script automatically modifies .gitignore to exclude copied environment files during worktree creation.

Use a dedicated script for Git worktrees to enforce safe usage through automatic environment file copying, .gitignore updates, and explicit safety prompts that prevent accidental destructive actions during parallel development.
