git-worktree.nvim

---

A simple wrapper around git worktree operations, create, switch, and delete. There is definitely some assumed work flow within this plugin (prs wanted to fix that).

Warning

Requires NeoVim 0.5+

Getting Started

First, install the plugin the usual way you prefer.

Plug 'ThePrimeagen/git-worktree.nvim'

Resource your vimrc and execute PlugInstall to ensure you have the plugin installed.

Setup

Options

update_on_change: Updates the current buffer to point to the new work tree if the file is found in the new project, else it will open up :Ex at the worktree root

clearjumps_on_change: Everytime you switch branches, your jumplist will be cleared so that you don't accidentally go backwards to a different branch and edit the wrong files.

require("git-worktree").setup({
    update_on_change = <boolean> -- default: true,
    clearjumps_on_change = <boolean> -- default: true,
})

Usage

There are three primary functions that should be your day to day.

-- Creates a worktree.  Requires the branch name and the upstream
-- Example:
:lua require("git-worktree").create_worktree("feat-69", "upstream/master")

-- switches to an existing worktree.  Requires the branch name
-- Example:
:lua require("git-worktree").switch_worktree("feat-69")

-- deletes to an existing worktree.  Requires the branch name
-- Example:
:lua require("git-worktree").delete_worktree("feat-69")

Telescope

Add the following to your vimrc to load the telescope extension

require("telescope").load_extension("git_worktree")

To bring up the telescope window listing your workspaces run the following

:lua require('telescope').extensions.git_worktree.git_worktrees()
-- <Enter> - switches to that worktree
-- <c-d> - deletes that worktree
-- <c-D> - force deletes that worktree

Hooks!

Yes! The best part about git-worktree is that it emits information so that you can act on it.

local Worktree = require("git-worktree")

-- op = "switch", "create", "delete"
-- path = branch in which was swapped too
-- upstream = only present on create, upstream of create operation
Worktree.on_tree_update(function(op, path, upstream)
end)

This means that you can use harpoon or other plugins to perform follow up operations that will help in turbo charging your development experience!
