Switching Worktrees

Easily switch between Git Worktrees in Tower to seamlessly manage multiple branches or revisions of your repository. Switching Worktrees allows you to focus on a specific branch or revision in its dedicated working directory without disrupting your main repository or other Worktrees.

How to Switch Worktrees

• From the Sidebar: Double-click a Worktree listed under the “Worktrees” section in the repository sidebar to open and switch to it.
• From a Branch: Double-click a branch that is backed by a Worktree (indicated by a small “+” badge) to immediately switch to its associated Worktree.

Why Switch Worktrees?

Switching Worktrees allows you to:

• Work on separate branches or revisions in isolation.
• Test changes or explore historical revisions without impacting your primary working directory.
• Quickly jump between active branches without the need to stash or commit unfinished changes.
