What’s New in WorktreeWise 1.1.0

WorktreeWise 1.1.0 expands Git worktree management with repository health monitoring, advanced creation workflows, embedded multi-agent AI workspaces, automated command sequences, and non-destructive maintenance tools.

Worktree overview showing five worktrees and repository health


Release Highlights at a Glance


1. Repository & Worktree Overview Dashboard

The Overview dashboard provides central visibility into all active worktrees without manual terminal queries:

  • 6 Summary Metrics: Monitor Total Worktrees, Clean Worktrees, Dirty Worktrees, Ahead/Behind divergence, Total Disk Footprint, and Stale References.
  • Clean / Dirty Donut Chart: Visual distribution of uncommitted working tree states across the repository.
  • Worktree Inspector: Select any worktree to view commit details, upstream sync status, and large untracked file alerts.
  • 4-Way Storage Breakdown: Categorizes disk usage into Project Files, Git metadata, Dependencies (node_modules), and Build artifacts.

2. Advanced Worktree Creation Wizard

The worktree creation modal includes built-in isolation and optimization tools:

  • 4 Creation Modes: Create from HEAD, existing local/remote tracking branches, Git release tags, or specific commits from Git Log.
  • Sparse Checkout: Select specific subdirectories to checkout with byte size estimates, reducing disk usage and index times in large monorepos.
  • Shared Dependencies: Symlink node_modules from your primary worktree to eliminate redundant package installs.
  • Environment Isolation: Detect .env configurations and apply Shared, Suffix, or Auto-Port strategies to avoid port collisions and database conflicts.
  • Pre- and Post-Hooks: Configure shell commands to run automatically before or after worktree provisioning.

3. Multi-Pane Terminal & AI Agent Workspace

Run shell sessions and autonomous coding agents side by side in worktree-scoped panes:

  • Flexible Tiling: Arrange panes in 1, 2, or 3 columns, or use Auto layout to adapt to window dimensions.
  • 7 Supported AI Agents: Built-in detection and configuration presets for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor CLI, Google Antigravity, Qwen Code, Kimi CLI, and OpenCode.
  • Smart Context: Attach active branch context, latest commit metadata, worktree directory paths, and file change statuses to agent prompts.
  • Sidebar Status Indicators: Glowing robot indicators highlight which worktrees have actively running agents or terminal processes.

4. Reusable Automation Workflows

Automate command execution across multiple worktrees with process controls:

  • Sequential & Parallel Modes: Run command chains across worktrees one at a time, or execute them concurrently with worker threads.
  • PTY Execution Engine: Commands run in pseudo-terminals with ANSI colors, progress spinners, and interactive prompt safeguards.
  • Import & Export: Import workflow definitions from .git/WorktreeWise/ across repositories with conflict validation.
  • Process Controls: Live execution logs with full-screen expansion (Shift + F) and graceful termination (Esc).

5. Privacy-Focused Git Log & Pairwise Git Diff

  • Column Visibility Toggles: Show or hide Author, Date, SHA, and Refs columns for clean screen recordings and privacy compliance.
  • Inline Commit Authoring: Stage and unstage files, review per-file diffs, write commit messages, and amend previous commits.
  • 4-Way Pairwise Diff: Compare any two worktrees, branches, tags, or commits side by side or line by line.

👉 Learn more in the Git Log Guide and Git Diff Guide


6. Review-First Worktree Pruning

Replace destructive CLI pruning with an audited cleanup workflow:

  • Dry-Run Inspection: Previews invalid worktree records without altering Git metadata.
  • Selective Checkbox Cleanup: Select exactly which stale references to prune while preserving worktrees on unmounted drives.

Upgrading to 1.1.0

WorktreeWise 1.1.0 is fully backward-compatible with repositories created in earlier versions. Existing worktrees, Git branches, and settings are detected automatically upon launching the updated application.
