ofc if you're running AI agents in YOLO mode — clones means you don't need to worry that Sonnet is going to see your .git/index.lock file and go "this is blocking me, let's rm -f this" and corrupt all your work that you never bothered pushing

Worktrees effectively share the entire state of the repo. Only limitation is that a branch can only be checked out in one repo at a time.

Clones only share the immutable object store

For most practical uses of same repo checking out different branches locally, worktrees are better.

The nice thing about clones is that you can have a backup clone, a wip clone, a review clone where you don't clutter the amount of local branch refs

Doesn't work. You need to mount both the worktree and the repo which defeats the point

you can also setup a local remote which hardlinks the index so it doesn't occupy more space. Why? Idk. You don't want to share stash, rerere-cache, branches whatever.

Also handy if you're running an agent in a container on the local fs. Set up a local clone, contain the agent to that repo folder and have it hack away on that. Later, you step out of the container and do the syncing. You can't use worktrees in this situations.

Bare repos are also pretty cool. You can clone the git mailing list as a bare repo and search for threads there instead of setting up an mbox (same for the kernel obviously)

Fwiw you can create your own trailers

if you want to reason about language correctness you are better off using linters, compilers and things like fuzzing

> the trend is AI also does the code review

please no. Keep at least four eyes on all code you ship

You use gh to interact with the forge, git to interact with the repo.

For example

  gh pr checks --watch

will run and poll the CI checks of a PR and exit 0 once they all pass

> Starlink Consumer Broadband at $380B (9.2M subscribers, ~38x revenue)

I mean that Starlinks consumer broadband is valued at ~38x revenue, when other telcos are valued around 1.5x revenue. That revenue is 2533% more expensive, why pay such a big premium for something that's essentially the same?

Anthropic should run it on their own code

not strictly speaking, but in practice it's the tip of the remote default branch

For $380B you can get both AT&T and Verizon and you pay ~1.55x the revenue. Why pay 38x for Starlink?

Tip, you may want to use origin/HEAD over origin/master

So it does a forced reset of the dirt after each bash command? Does it confuse Claude? I frequently find it lacks path awareness of what it's working directory is

Hey Boris, can you teach CC how to use cd?
