One of the bullet point advantages listed for Fossil of allowing multiple checkouts per repository is also supported by Git. There has always been a way to do it, but since Git 2.5 or so, the "worktree" sub command was added for this purpose.
- emerongi 8y agoHuh. I've just used another git clone of the repo, but the worktree command seems to fit my uses very well. Thanks.
- paulddraper 8y agoGit clone is still a fine solution, and the one I prefer. Worktree adds the ability to share config and save disk space.
- fiddlerwoaroof 8y agoThe other advantages of worktree are: you can update the remotes of all the checkouts at once with git fetch and you can see all the places your repository is checked out with a git command.
