Git Bare Repository Worktree Workflow for Claude Code

🚨 CRITICAL: Understanding My Project Structure

I use a bare Git repository approach with Git worktrees extensively. Every subdirectory in my projects represents a different git branch as a worktree.

When you see a project like /home/code/projects/my-app/:

• my-app/ = project container (NOT a working tree)
• my-app/.bare/ = actual Git repository database
• my-app/.git = pointer file directing Git commands to .bare/
