Does it copy my local environment variables?

Yes, the script automatically copies .env and .serena files from your main repository root to the new worktree directory to ensure your environment is ready to run.

Can I use this for existing branches?

Yes, the skill supports creating worktrees for both new feature branches and existing branches already present on the remote.

What is a Git worktree?

A Git worktree allows you to have multiple branches checked out at the same time in different directories, all sharing the same repository history and metadata.

How does this skill handle branch names with slashes?

It automatically converts slashes (/) into dashes (-) to ensure the resulting directory names are filesystem-friendly and organized.

Where are the worktrees stored?

All created worktrees are stored in a standardized '.git-worktrees/' directory within your project root for easy management.

개발자 도구

Streamlines the creation of isolated Git worktree environments for efficient parallel development and seamless context switching.

This skill automates the setup of isolated Git worktree environments within a dedicated directory, allowing developers to work on multiple features simultaneously without the need for constant stashing or branch switching in a single directory. It automatically synchronizes with the remote default branch, handles directory naming by converting slashes to dashes, and preserves critical environment configurations by copying .env and .serena files. It is an essential tool for developers who need to balance long-term feature development with urgent bug fixes while maintaining a clean, separate workspace for every task.
