Optimizing Git for AI Workflows
The introduction of AI in coding has disrupted traditional Git workflows, leading to issues like lost uncommitted work, cluttered branches, and anxiety over stashing. To address this, the concept of a "Mirror Branch" is proposed—a personal workspace for developers to freely commit messy outputs, logs, and drafts without the pressure of maintaining a clean history. This method allows for exploration and experimentation while keeping the feature branch uncluttered. By separating the messy process from clean code promotion, developers can maintain context and memory of their problem-solving journey, thus enhancing productivity and reducing mental overhead without losing valuable insights along the way.https://roofman.me/2026/04/09/optimizing-git-for-ai-workflows/

So I've just discovered git worktrees and it seems like a feature worth using. After playing for a while, a couple of questions:
1) what layout of directories do you prefer? Still trying to find a scheme I like.
2) do you use a bare clone as a base? I see the logic but I've heard it can create some funnies with remote branches
Thanks
