Interested in examples of the types of scripts others collaborators wouldn't be able to use? Like scripts for PR workflows?

Usually when I'm working in one part of the codebase and I have sample data or something at a specific path on my local machine and Im testing the same thing over and over again will I make a Makefile or something and info/exclude it to help me keep focused. That's one way I use it.

    I use git worktrees pretty heavily in my own workflows (I worked like an AI agent before AI agents made worktrees cool). I like to track my ephemera/utility scripts in git, so what I do is keep a private ephemera repo for those, and then use `git worktree add` from the collaborative repo to check out the branch I'm working on there into a subdirectory of my ephemera repo.

      git-home/
    company-project/ <-- git repo with main checked out
    ephemera/ <-- my private repo
      my-data-script.py
      work/ <-- gitignored
        company-project-feature-X/ <-- worktree on feature-X branch
        company-project-feature-Y/ <-- worktree on feature-Y branch

    This way, too, I can easily use the same ephemera scripts across multiple branches, or even multiple repos, concurrently.
