About:
Phantom streamlines parallel development by managing multiple Git worktrees from a single repository. It automates the creation, switching, and organization of branches as isolated workspaces. This eliminates the overhead of juggling multiple clones and complex Git commands for concurrent feature work.
Key Features:
  • Automated worktree lifecycle management
  • Simplified branch switching and isolation
  • Single repository workflow for parallel tasks
  • CLI-first and scriptable design
Use Cases:
  • Working on multiple features simultaneously without stashing changes
  • Quickly testing different branches in isolated environments
  • Managing hotfixes while continuing development on main features
Alternatives:
  • Native Git Worktrees – Phantom provides a higher-level CLI wrapper that automates and simplifies the manual `git worktree` commands.
  • git-switch – Focuses on branch switching, whereas Phantom manages the full worktree lifecycle including creation and cleanup.
