Git Worktree Manager FAQs

Question 1

Can I choose where my worktrees are stored?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The skill first looks for existing directories like .worktrees/, then checks CLAUDE.md for a preference. If neither is found, it will ask you to choose between a hidden project-local directory or a global configuration path.

Question 2

What is the primary advantage of using Git worktrees with Claude?

Accepted Answer

Git worktrees allow Claude to work on a new feature in a completely separate directory while keeping your main workspace intact. This prevents dependency conflicts and allows you to switch between tasks without losing your place or uncommitted changes.

Question 3

Does this skill handle project dependencies automatically?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it automatically detects configuration files like package.json, Cargo.toml, requirements.txt, and go.mod to run the appropriate installation commands (npm install, cargo build, etc.) within the new worktree.

Question 4

Why does the skill run tests before I start working?

Accepted Answer

Running baseline tests ensures the worktree starts in a clean, passing state. This allows you to distinguish between pre-existing bugs and issues introduced during your current feature implementation.

Question 5

How does the safety verification work?

Accepted Answer

The skill uses 'git check-ignore' to ensure your worktree directory is not being tracked. If it isn't ignored, the skill follows a 'fix immediately' rule by adding the directory to your .gitignore and committing the change before proceeding.
