Does this skill automatically change my terminal directory?

No, standard terminal security prevents external processes from changing your shell's working directory. Instead, the skill provides the exact 'cd' command for you to run manually.

Can I use this with any Git repository?

Yes, it works with any Git repository, though it is specifically optimized for workflows that utilize the 'git worktree' feature.

What happens to my uncommitted changes?

The skill prompts you with options to commit with a message, stash them for later, or discard them, ensuring you never lose work during a switch.

Is the 'discard' option dangerous?

Yes, discarding changes performs a hard reset. The skill includes a warning prompt to ensure you only use this option when you are certain the changes are no longer needed.

Developer Tools

Streamlines Git context switching by safely managing uncommitted changes before navigating between existing worktrees.

The Git Worktree Switcher is designed for developers working in complex environments like monorepos where multiple features are managed simultaneously across different worktrees. It eliminates the friction of manual context switching by automatically checking your current Git status and providing an interactive menu to commit, stash, or discard changes. Once your workspace is clean, it lists all available worktrees and generates the precise command needed to switch your terminal to the new directory, ensuring a safe and organized transition between tasks.
