As the author, I have been using worktrees due to AI agents. And I love Magit but didn’t know it handles git worktrees so well! Thanks for letting me know, will start using magit to manage my worktrees immediately.

Worktrees are a must if you work with monorepos or just multiple branches in general. Lack of conventions (or rather the braindead defaults) and having to explicitly type out everything is what hinders adoption the most.

I've solved this by running thin bash script wrappers that keep the workflow SVN-like with a root directory that contains per-branch directories and a hidden bare repo).
