Git Worktrees

Git worktrees create isolated workspaces sharing the same repository, allowing work on multiple branches simultaneously.

When to Use

• MUST: When implementing features that need isolation
• MUST: Before executing multi-task implementation plans
• SHOULD: When parallel development on different features needed
• MAY: For experimental work that might be discarded
