I don't know what a Git worktree is and I'm annoyed to have to learn what this new thing is.

@waldoj@mastodon.social tldr it’s like a separate clone in a parallel directory without you having to do any of the steps of cloning it a second time or switching back and forth between two copies of the repo with different status. Literally makes a parallel folder.

@waldoj@mastodon.social If you’ve ever used git stash, you’re pretty much 80% of the way there. It just simplifies the context switching of branching and stashing without you needing to keep track of everything in your head.
