Git-worktrees is very useful. One use-case is having a dedicated worktree for an old version of the program/app that you need to work on for whatever reason (using the same worktree for very different versions can confuse build systems and IDEs). These things aren=E2=80=99t covered= by those other supposed alternatives (which I never use because I don=E2=80= =99t work on big repositories). Maybe the idea is to use a fetch depth of 1 on N clones instead of N worktrees. But then you still have clones laying around in an ad hoc manner compared to having on overview of all the worktrees that you are using from one repository. --=20 Kristoffer Haugsbakk
