Noob question here, but was wondering what is the difference between gitbutler and git worktree, and any pros on using gitbutler instead of worktree workflow ?

I was wondering the same, but it is clearer if you try out gitbutler. Curious why git worktree is not even mentioned tho, or even used as a backend for gitbutler

Somehow I think that git worktree would have been obvious backend choice. And it would have make the CLI-use also more clear. Now the created local branches are somewhat confusing

I wrote this up in some detail here: https://blog.gitbutler.com/git-worktrees/

Thanks!
