Git Worktrees

Work on several branches at once with worktrees.

Worktrees let you check out multiple branches into separate folders backed by the same repository — ideal when inspecting a change while a separate build keeps running.

Managing worktrees

bash

git worktree add ../review main
# open it in a new Skiv window
skiv ../review --new

Switching

Skiv lists your worktrees in the source control panel so you can open any of them in a new window without leaving your current work.
