SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the management of Git worktrees to enable parallel branch development and streamlined environments.

Core Features & Use Cases

Create and manage multiple worktrees for feature branches, hotfixes, or experiments.
Automatically copy environment files and install dependencies on worktree creation.
Use cases include parallel feature development in monorepos and quick experimentation with isolated worktrees.

Quick Start

Use the worktree workflow to create and manage parallel development worktrees: git gtr new feature/my-feature -e git gtr list git gtr go feature/my-feature

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate Git worktree creation with environment setup?▼

Git worktree automation creates isolated branches with automatic environment file copying and dependency installation. Use `git gtr new feature/branch-name -e` to generate a worktree, copy env files, and install dependencies in one command, eliminating manual setup for parallel development.

Can I manage multiple Git worktrees in parallel for feature development?▼

Yes. Worktree management enables parallel feature branches, hotfixes, and experiments by creating isolated working directories from a single repository. Switch between worktrees using `git gtr go branch-name` and list active worktrees with `git gtr list`.

What's the best way to set up worktrees for monorepo development?▼

Worktree automation streamlines monorepo workflows by creating isolated environments per feature branch with synchronized dependencies and env files. This eliminates context-switching overhead and reduces environment drift across parallel development tracks.

Does worktree automation work with pnpm dependency installation?▼

Yes. Worktree automation includes post-create hooks and automatic dependency installation, supporting pnpm and other package managers. Dependencies install automatically when a new worktree is created with the `-e` flag.

How do I clean up and remove worktrees from my repository?▼

Worktree lifecycle commands include `git gtr rm branch-name` to remove a worktree and `git gtr clean` to prune stale worktree references. These unified commands streamline worktree housekeeping alongside creation and navigation.
