uv-using-git-worktrees

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a safe and systematic way to create isolated development environments using Git worktrees, preventing accidental commits and ensuring a clean baseline for new feature development.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Isolated Workspaces: Create separate Git worktrees for different branches, sharing the same repository.
• Smart Directory Selection: Automatically determines the best location for new worktrees based on project conventions or user preference.
• Safety Verification: Ensures project-local directories are ignored by Git before creating a worktree to prevent accidental tracking of worktree contents.
• Automated Setup: Runs project-specific setup commands (e.g., npm install, cargo build) and verifies a clean baseline with tests.
• Use Case: When starting work on a new feature, use this Skill to create a dedicated, isolated worktree, ensuring your main branch remains untouched and your new work is properly sandboxed.

Quick Start

Use the uv-using-git-worktrees skill to set up an isolated workspace for the 'new-feature' branch.
