I am kind of curious to know how many people know and utilize git worktrees since it is fairly new (introduced in git v.2.28). I find it to be quite practical and your approach to git worktrees makes sense.

I've shared it at work before but I think you need to see something 5-10 times, then be motivated to try it, and then it really sinks in.

One neat feature I've also shown people is using worktrees to have many sparse checkouts from a big repo/monorepo so they can be used as more sane chunks.

git v2.28 was released four years ago almost to the day.
