How does git-newtree differ from standard git worktree commands?

It automates the setup process by organizing worktrees into a .tree/ folder and automatically copying essential environment files like .env and .envrc to the new workspace.

What does the git-maingulp command do?

It is a cleanup utility that merges your feature branch back into the main branch, pushes to the remote, and removes the associated worktree in a single automated step.

Can I force delete a worktree if it has uncommitted changes?

Yes, the git-killtree command supports a --force flag to remove worktrees and delete unmerged branches when work is being abandoned.

Where are worktrees stored using this skill?

By default, this skill organizes all active worktrees within a hidden .tree/ subdirectory at the root of your Git repository to keep your project structure clean.

What is a Git worktree?

A Git worktree allows you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in separate directories while sharing the same underlying repository data.

개발자 도구

Streamlines parallel branch development by managing Git worktrees through specialized creation, merging, and cleanup commands.

The Worktree Tending skill optimizes multi-branch Git workflows by enabling developers to manage separate working directories within a single repository. It leverages a custom set of scripts to automate the creation of worktrees in a centralized .tree/ directory, handles the synchronization of environment files, and facilitates efficient merging or archiving of features. This skill is particularly useful for developers who need to switch contexts frequently or work on multiple tasks simultaneously without the overhead of stashing or constant branch switching.
