What is the benefit of using worktrees over stashing?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out in different directories simultaneously, enabling you to work on an urgent hotfix without interrupting your current feature progress or losing state.

Does it support automated bug hunting?

Absolutely. It includes patterns for 'git bisect run', allowing you to use automated test scripts to quickly find the specific commit that introduced a regression.

Can this skill help me recover lost code?

Yes, it provides specific workflows for using the Git Reflog, which tracks every change to the HEAD, allowing you to recover deleted commits or branches even after a hard reset.

Is rebasing safe for team projects?

The skill teaches the 'rebase only local' rule and the use of --force-with-lease to ensure you don't disrupt collaborators or overwrite their work on shared branches.
