Does it handle dependency installation automatically?

Yes, it auto-detects common project types like Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go, and runs the appropriate install commands (like npm install or cargo build) immediately after creating the worktree.

Why use worktrees instead of just switching branches?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories, meaning you can work on a feature while keeping your main environment intact without stashing or committing half-finished work.

How does the skill ensure worktrees aren't accidentally committed?

The skill performs a mandatory safety check using 'git check-ignore'. If the worktree directory is not ignored, it will automatically update your .gitignore and commit that change before proceeding.

What happens if the baseline tests fail?

If the initial tests fail in the new worktree, the skill reports the failures and asks for explicit permission before proceeding, ensuring you don't build on top of a broken state.

開発者ツール

Creates and manages isolated Git worktrees with automated environment setup and safety verification for parallel feature development.

The Using Git Worktrees skill automates the process of setting up isolated workspaces within a repository, allowing developers to work on multiple branches simultaneously without the friction of context switching or stashing. It features a smart directory selection process, mandatory .gitignore verification to prevent accidental commits of worktree contents, and automated environment initialization for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go. By running baseline tests before work begins, it ensures every new feature starts from a known stable state.
