Sync environment files across linked git worktrees

A tool to sync env files to your Git worktrees

Post Description

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

Sharing in case it solves anyone else's problem
