Does it handle dependency installation?

Yes, it automatically detects project types (Node.js, Rust, Python, Go) and runs the appropriate setup commands like npm install, cargo build, or pip install.

What is a Git worktree?

A Git worktree is a feature that allows you to have multiple branches of the same repository checked out in different directories simultaneously, sharing the same local repository history.

Why does this skill check .gitignore?

It verifies .gitignore to ensure that project-local worktree directories are not accidentally tracked or committed, which prevents repository pollution and maintain a clean git status.

What happens if baseline tests fail?

If tests fail during setup, the skill will report the specific failures and ask for your explicit permission before proceeding, ensuring you don't build on top of pre-existing bugs.

Can I use global worktree locations?

Yes, the skill allows you to choose between project-local directories like '.worktrees/' or a global location in your config folder to keep your project root clean.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Automates the creation of isolated Git worktrees with safety verification and automated environment setup.

Acerca de

The Git Worktree Manager skill streamlines the process of working on multiple branches simultaneously by automating the setup of isolated workspaces. It intelligently handles directory selection, ensures worktree paths are correctly added to .gitignore to prevent repository pollution, and automatically performs dependency installation and baseline testing for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go projects. This skill is essential for developers who need to switch contexts quickly without the overhead of stashing changes or risking workspace contamination.
