The following documentation outlines how to use Git Worktree.
The following outlines how to git worktree that allows you look at another branches contents without needing to checkout to that branch. If you type git worktree in your terminal, you will see a list of commands you can use.
So, let's say we want to look at the contents of a branch called test/labels. we would do the following of either
1). git worktree add worktreeBranch test/labels
This will add the contents of the branch to a folder called worktreeBranch to your current folder.
or
2). git worktree add ../worktreeBranch test/labels
This will add the contents of the branch to a folder called worktreeBranch to your current folder but moved up by one directory. There may be cases this may be more useful as you can open this in a new window, which will make it easier to differentiate the two branches.
To list your current worktree's, use the following command git worktree list.
To remove any old worktrees you no longer need use the following command to git rid of the example we used, which was worktreeBranch.
git worktree remove worktreeBranch.
