I just took a stab at git worktree at work this week after rereading this article. It's amazing. We were in the process of upgrading our UI component library and I was able to checkout pre/post upgrade branches without having to continuously npm install to swap between dependencies.

Plus I'm pretty sure I could have both "versions" of our repo locally running at the same time so I could do UI comparisons...but I didn't actually get that far.

I'm going to be honest. I like this thread. Not only is the article long and "thorough" (whether you agree with this form of thoroughness or not) but the responses are too.

I can appreciate what the author is trying to express. I also related to how he's trying to express it because it's very similar to how I try to explain my opinions, shower thoughts, meanderings....which typically earns me eyes glazing over from my conversation partners haha.

I have many many thoughts on everything being discussed here, but rather than contribute, I'm going to sip on my coffee and keep reading.

P.s. I'm liking PD better than Reddit. Actual conversation happening.

Ya this article was great. I wish I could convince my coworkers to take a deep dive into Git. I do it probably once a year and it's helped me be the "hero" with confidence several times.

Git is exciting/interesting to me....it is not normal.

tinker_james OP ,

Thanks for the in-depth reply!

tinker_james OP ,

Thanks for the detailed write up! Send the "whole rant" my way. I'd read it.
