Git Worktree Config Generator FAQs

Question 1

Will it overwrite my existing configuration files?

Accepted Answer

No, the skill first checks for an existing .worktreerc.yml file and will explicitly ask for user permission before performing any updates or overwrites.

Question 2

Why does the skill use 'git check-ignore'?

Accepted Answer

It checks the gitignore status to ensure that only local, untracked files (like .env or local IDE configs) are suggested for copying, as tracked files are already handled by git.

Question 3

What is the primary purpose of the wt-init skill?

Accepted Answer

The wt-init skill is designed to automate the creation of a .worktreerc.yml file, which tells Claude Code how to handle environment files and setup commands when creating new git worktrees.

Question 4

Which programming environments does it support?

Accepted Answer

It detects patterns for a wide range of ecosystems including Node.js (npm, yarn, pnpm), Python (uv, pyproject.toml), Ruby (Gemfile), and cross-platform tools like mise and pre-commit.

Question 5

Can I customize the suggested hooks?

Accepted Answer

Yes, after scanning your project, the skill uses an interactive prompt to let you confirm or adjust which files to copy and which post-create hooks to include.
