# Using Git Worktrees ## Overview Git worktrees create isolated workspaces sharing the same repository, allowing work on multiple branches simultaneously without switching. **Core principle:** Systematic directory selection + safety verification = reliable isolation. **Announce at start:** "I'm using the sr-using-git-worktrees skill to set up an isolated workspace." ## Directory Selection Process Follow this priority order: ### 1. Check Existing Directories ```bash # Check in priority order ls -d .worktrees 2>/dev/null # Preferred (hidden) ls -d worktrees 2>/dev/null # Alternative ``` **If found:** Use that directory. If both exist, `.worktrees` wins. ### 2. Ask User If no directory exists: ``` No worktree directory found. Where should I create worktrees? 1. .worktrees/ (project-local, hidden) 2. ~/worktrees/<project-name>/ (global location) Which would you prefer? ``` ## Safety Verification ### For Project-Local Directories (.worktrees or worktrees) **MUST verify directory is ignored before creating worktree:** ```bash git check-ignore -q .worktrees 2>/dev/null || git check-ignore -q worktrees 2>/dev/null ``` **If NOT ignored:** 1. Add appropriate line to .gitignore 2. Commit the change 3. Proceed with worktree creation ### For Global Directory No .gitignore verification needed - outside project entirely. ## Creation Steps ### 1. Detect Project Name ```bash project=$(basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)") ``` ### 2. Create Worktree ``
