using-git-worktrees

To create a git worktree without affecting your main workspace, this skill automates directory selection and validates ignore rules to isolate feature branches safely. It then runs guided setup commands to bootstrap the project environment.

The best way to manage multiple git branches in separate directories is using git worktrees. This approach provides clean separation of work, allowing you to safely experiment and test features across local and global locations without polluting the main workspace.

To prevent accidentally committing a git worktree directory, you need proper ignore validation. This skill automatically validates your ignore rules to ensure worktrees placed in locations like .worktrees are safely excluded from accidental commits.

Yes, you can automatically run project setup commands when creating a git worktree. This skill provides guided creation across local and global locations and executes automatic setup commands for cohesive project bootstrapping immediately after isolation.

This git worktree workflow supports custom directory locations by applying automatic directory selection with a priority order. It facilitates guided creation across both local and global locations to safely isolate feature branches wherever needed.
