raine/workmux: A Cleaner Way to Run Parallel Git Worktrees

Описание и применение

workmux связывает Git‑worktree с отдельным окном tmux, упрощая одновременную работу над несколькими ветками и снижая риск ошибок.

Задача

Managing multiple Git branches with separate terminals and directories becomes chaotic and error‑prone.

Результат

Parallel development becomes streamlined: isolated directories, dedicated tmux contexts, and repeatable commands reduce setup time and errors.

Рабочий процесс

• Install workmux via its README instructions.
• Use workmux add <branch> to create a worktree and tmux workspace for a branch.
• Use workmux list to view all active workspaces.
• Use workmux remove <branch> to clean up finished worktrees and tmux sessions.
• Open editors (e.g., Cursor) or run servers/tests in the corresponding tmux windows for each branch.

Доказательства

Each branch gets an isolated directory and a dedicated tmux context.

Источник

Worktrees share the same Git repository data, but each checkout still needs its own dependencies, build artifacts, and environment configuration.
