Show HN: A tool to sync env files to your Git worktrees

2 points by alxwrd a month ago · 0 comments · 1 min read

I've been trying out different "worktree tools" recently (Conductor [1], Emdash [2], Sculptor [3], and Superset [4]).

One problem I've been having is not all the tools support automatically copying .env files into worktrees. All of them support running a setup script however. Copying a bash snippet to do the copying was getting tedious - so I've put together a small tool/git extension to solve my problem.

  $ cd ~/repos/myproject                       # primary worktree, has .env
  $ git worktree add ~/worktrees/my-feature    # create a linked worktree
  $ cd ~/worktrees/my-feature
  $ git env sync                               # copy .env from the primary
  synced .env
  1 files synced, 0 unchanged, 0 conflicts skipped
