using-git-worktrees

To create isolated git worktrees, this Skill automates directory selection and safety verification. It sets up separate workspaces sharing the same repository, ensuring your feature development is isolated from the main branch to prevent merge conflicts.

Managing multiple git branches simultaneously is best achieved by using isolated worktrees. This Skill creates separate workspace directories for each feature, allowing you to work on different branches in parallel without switching contexts in a single directory.

Smart directory selection works by choosing the optimal workspace location based on predefined rules. It includes safety verification to check that the selected directory is ignored in `.gitignore`, preventing accidental commits of worktree files into your main repository.

You do not need to manually configure project dependencies after creating a git worktree. This Skill automates the setup of dependencies and project-specific configurations, requiring only git and appropriate environment setup to function correctly.

You should use git worktrees instead of standard branch switching when starting new feature branches that require isolation. Worktrees prevent merge conflicts and allow simultaneous work on multiple branches without disrupting your main repository directory.
