Release Notes

Fixed

• No spurious Skipping pre-commit hooks (--no-hooks) line after declined approval: wt step commit, wt step squash, and wt merge collapsed two distinct hook-skip reasons — the user passing --no-hooks and the user declining an interactive approval prompt — into a single verify: bool. With hooks configured, declining produced both ○ Commands declined, committing without hooks and ○ Skipping pre-commit hooks (--no-hooks) back-to-back; the second line was wrong because the user never passed --no-hooks. The call chain now carries a HookGate (Run / NoHooksFlag / Silent), so declined-approval paths skip hooks silently while the explicit --no-hooks flag still prints its message exactly once. (#​2485)

Internal

• HookAnnouncer is the single entry point for hook dispatch: post-commit and post-switch now route through the same announcer used by other phases, and remaining call sites adopt TemplateVars for variable assembly. (#​2481, #​2482, #​2484)

• Merge cleanup extracted: The post-merge finish sequence moves into worktree::finish_after_merge, and wt list threads the placeholder explicitly instead of reaching through Cell. (#​2491, #​2492)

• CI consolidated onto a shared composite action: New advisory cargo-affected jobs land, and the test matrix and affected-jobs setup now share one composite action. (#​2475, #​2483, #​2486)

Release Notes

Improved

• sanitize_db template filter caps output at 48 chars (was 63 — PostgreSQL's identifier limit). The new budget leaves headroom for users composing the output into longer paths or identifiers, e.g., Unix socket paths capped at 107 bytes. The 3-character hash suffix is unchanged, so collision avoidance is preserved at the new budget; only the truncated base shrinks. (Breaking: branches whose previous sanitize_db output exceeded 48 chars get a different identifier — most names are well under 48 and pass through unchanged.) (#​2467, thanks @​yajo for #​2397)

• New hash template filter: {{ value | hash }} produces a 3-character base36 digest of the input — useful for composing custom truncate-with-collision-avoidance recipes when sanitize_db's 48-char budget still isn't tight enough. (#​2453)

• Background hook announces collapse to one line per command: wt merge (with removal) previously emitted two or three separate ◎ Running … lines for post-remove + post-switch and post-merge. Hooks across all phases of a single command now share one combined announce: ◎ Running post-remove: user:cleanup; post-switch: user:notify; post-merge: user:sync. (#​2457)

• Picker-driven post-switch hooks now receive target / target_worktree_path template variables, matching hooks fired from wt switch <branch>. Closes a pre-existing asymmetry where interactive switching exposed strictly fewer variables than the non-interactive path. (#​2470)

Fixed

• wt <alias> stdout is pipeable again: wt my-alias | tr … (and any other downstream pipe) silently produced no output because the foreground executor redirected every alias body's stdout to wt's stderr — a hook-only redirect that PR #​2089 inherited uniformly. Aliases now pass stdout through; hooks and wt step for-each keep the merged-stderr behavior so their output stays ordered with wt's own status messages. (#​2479, thanks @​davidmyersdev for reporting #​2478)

• wt switch <symlink> resolves to the existing worktree instead of failing with No branch named …. The path-based fallback in Repository::worktree_at_path previously compared paths via lexical normalization only, so symlink-equivalent spellings never matched. The same symlink-aware comparison is now used everywhere the library identifies a worktree by path. (#​2466)

• Deleted-CWD recovery handles symlinked subdirectories: When a worktree is removed while a shell sits in a subdirectory whose parents include a symlink (e.g. ~/link/repo.feature/src), wt now finds the parent repository and recovers as expected. Previously the symlink-aware path compared only file names and bailed for any path deeper than the worktree root. (#​2464)

• Merge safety backups for slash branches: WorkingTree::create_safety_backup() flattened / to - in the ref path, so distinct branches like a/b and a-b collided at the same refs/wt-backup/a-b ref — the latest backup for one could clobber the other, and the documented refs/wt-backup/<branch> recovery path didn't match what was actually written. Slashes are valid in git ref names; the branch name is now used as-is. (#​2463)

• Nushell wrapper migrates to function-level @complete: Per fdncred's recommendation in nushell/nushell#18128, the wrapper replaces the parameter-level [...args: string@"nu-complete wt"] with a function-level @complete attribute on an untyped [...args] rest, and the completer signature moves from [context: string] (with manual split row " " reconstruction) to [spans: list<string>]. Net deletion of seven lines of fragile token reassembly; once nushell/nushell#18131 ships in stable nu the wrapper will automatically benefit from --flag="value" quote stripping and ~ expansion. (#​2458)

Internal

• Hook dispatch unified: A single HookAnnouncer orchestrates per-command announces across phases, replacing scattered CommandOrigin-keyed dispatch with closures, and the various background-hook entry points now share one path. Switch and merge sites assemble template variables through a single TemplateVars builder. (#​2457, #​2470, #​2472, #​2477)

• wt list rendering modes collapse: The internal RenderTarget enum replaces three parallel rendering paths, the JSON path skips the per-result render that the formatter never used, and dead is_tty plumbing is removed. (#​2469, #​2473)

• Push handling switches to a PushKind enum instead of sniffing verb strings (#​2468); try_alias and step_alias share one help-intercept implementation (#​2471); lazy template expansion in the command executor lives in one place via resolve_command_str (#​2476).

Release Notes

Fixed

• Interactive pickers via aliases no longer freeze with a blank screen: After the v0.44.0 fix that let aliases inherit the controlling tty (#​2380), wt sw (and other aliases that wrap wt switch) still hung — the alias child was placed in a new process group, so when the skim picker called tcsetattr on /dev/tty the kernel raised SIGTTOU and stopped it mid-render. The interactive (no-stdin-payload) execution path now keeps the alias child in wt's process group; a PID-targeted signal forwarder ensures externally-delivered signals (kill -TERM <wt-pid>) still reach the child. Hooks (which receive JSON on stdin) are unaffected. (#​2444)

Improved

• wt <alias> --help hint follows output guidelines: The hint emitted on wt <alias> --help previously printed to stdout without a status symbol, used backticks around commands, and stacked three indented bullet suggestions. It now renders as an info line plus a single semicolon-joined hint on stderr, with commands styled via underline (dim-safe). (#​2447)

Release Notes

Fixed

• worktrunk builds again with --no-default-features (regression in v0.45.0): The TTY progress spinner added in #​2420 used crossterm unconditionally, but crossterm is gated behind the cli feature in Cargo.toml. cargo install --locked --no-default-features worktrunk and library consumers depending on worktrunk with default-features = false failed to compile. The crossterm-using internals are now #[cfg(feature = "cli")]-gated; without cli, Progress degrades to a no-op (the public API is unchanged). The bug slipped past the in-workspace cargo hack check --feature-powerset --no-dev-deps because workspace dev-dependencies pull crossterm in transitively and Cargo's feature unifier leaks it into the lib build. (#​2441)

Improved

• Deprecation warnings for --claude-code flag and wt hook post-create alias: Both surfaces previously mapped silently to their canonical replacements (--format=claude-code and pre-start), giving users no signal to migrate before eventual removal. Each invocation now emits a stderr warning, matching the pattern used by wt select, --no-verify, and wt hook approvals. (#​2436)

Release Notes

Improved

• wt remove --foreground shows a TTY progress spinner: Removing a worktree with a fat node_modules (or any large trash payload) now prints ⠼ Removing 7,272 files · 64.5 MiB to stderr while the unlink proceeds, with a matching (N files · X MiB) suffix on the success line. TTY-gated; pipes and the background path are byte-for-byte unchanged. Driven by the same machinery introduced for wt step copy-ignored in #​2413. (#​2420)

• wt step copy-ignored shows a TTY progress spinner: Large copies of node_modules, build/, or target/ previously ran silently. A stderr-only spinner (⠼ Copying 7,272 files · 64.5 MiB) ticks while the copy proceeds, gated on TTY + verbosity == 0 + not --dry-run, with a 300ms startup delay so sub-second copies stay quiet. (#​2413, thanks @​tehdb for the suggestion)

• wt switch -c <new> --base <name> accepts a remote-only base: --base releases/4.x.x previously failed with No branch, tag, or commit named "releases/4.x.x" when the branch existed only as a remote-tracking ref. The bare name now resolves through the single matching remote (the existing safety code still unsets the new branch's upstream so a stray git push doesn't target the base). Multi-remote and zero-remote cases pass through unchanged. (#​2411, thanks @​viicslen for reporting #​2410)

• LLM wt step commit summaries surfaced in wt config state: wt config state get now includes a SUMMARY CACHE table (and JSON section) listing per-branch entries, and wt config state clear removes them alongside markers/vars/CI status. Backed by a new content-addressed layout at .git/wt/cache/summary/{branch}/{hash}.json so a cache hit is a single file-existence check. (#​2407)

Fixed

• wt config state clear no longer reports "Cleared 0" when an I/O or config error actually occurred: Across markers, vars, previous-branch, default-branch, and CI-status (single + aggregate), eleven unwrap_or(false) / let _ = unset_config(...) swallows silently turned real failures into "nothing to clear" messages. Genuine git config --unset failures and read_dir/remove_file errors now surface; the common "key didn't exist" exit-5 path stays silent. The shared clear_* machinery for the on-disk caches is now consolidated in worktrunk::cache. (#​2394, #​2400)

• wt config state ci-status clear <branch> actually clears the cache file: The single-branch path was still calling unset_config("worktrunk.state.<branch>.ci-status") from before the cache moved to .git/wt/cache/ci-status/<branch>.json. The command always took the info branch and never touched the real cache; --all was already correct. (#​2392)

• wt config state get/clear ci-status for origin/foo-style branches when a same-named local branch exists: A local branch literally named origin/foo would shadow the remote-tracking ref — is_remote resolved against the remote while the SHA used for cache keys came from the local branch, so gh/glab was invoked for the remote while the cache tracked the local. A single for-each-ref query now sources is_remote, the short name, and the HEAD SHA from the same ref. Tags and raw SHAs passed via --branch now return BranchNotFound instead of being accepted as "local branches" with nonsensical CI lookups. (#​2388)

Documentation

• worktrunk.dev/llms.txt plus .md companions for every page: Each docs page is now also served as clean markdown at worktrunk.dev/<page>.md, with an llms.txt index per the llms.txt spec so LLM tools can find the docs without scraping HTML. (#​2404)

• Static command-output blocks for the GIF-heavy docs pages: merge, step, remove, hook, and llm-commits now include realistic colorized command-output blocks driven by insta snapshots, alongside (or instead of) the GIFs — so they stay in lockstep with what wt actually prints. (#​2405, thanks @​drewnoakes for reporting #​2403)

• Conda / Pixi installation listed in the install section: The README and worktrunk-page install table now mention the conda-forge package alongside Homebrew, Cargo, winget, and pacman. (#​2425, thanks @​noamgot for reporting #​2424)

• FAQ documents the new summary cache layout: The "What files does Worktrunk create?" inventory now includes the .git/wt/cache/summary/{branch}/{hash}.json LLM-summary cache. (#​2408)

Internal

• Three on-disk caches unified onto a shared worktrunk::cache module: sha_cache, ci_status, and the new summary cache now share one implementation of torn-write semantics, error policy, LRU sweep, and clear mechanics. The summaries/ directory is renamed summary/ to match the singular-operation convention used by every other kind (ci-status, is-ancestor, etc.); stale summaries/ dirs are harmless. (Breaking library API: Repository::clear_git_commands_cache and Repository::git_commands_cache_count removed; worktrunk::copy::copy_dir_recursive now takes 4 parameters instead of 3 and worktrunk::copy::copy_leaf now returns Result<Option<u64>> instead of Result<bool> to thread the progress reporter.) (#​2407, #​2420)

• Repository::root() no longer caches the fallback path for callers outside any work tree, dropping the dedicated prewarm_is_inside sentinel cache — worktree_roots.contains_key(path) is now a reliable "path is inside a work tree" signal. No external behavior change. (#​2390)

• MSRV bumped from 1.93 to 1.94 following the latest stable − 1 policy. (#​2423)

• Claude Code plugin now uses the commit SHA for versioning: The static version: 1.0.0 in the plugin manifest hadn't moved despite ongoing changes to skills and hooks. Removing it lets Claude Code use the commit SHA, so every commit becomes an update for installed users. (#​2402)

• Docs-sync pipeline simplification: --help-page plain/web paths unified behind PageMode (#​2412); blank-line corruption in mixed $ cmd + output blocks fixed at the root in convert_dollar_console_to_terminal and the MARKER_OPEN_PREFIX/MARKER_CLOSE constants extracted (#​2417, #​2418); three sync tests collapsed into test_docs_are_in_sync and dead inner snapshot wrappers stripped (#​2419); mirrored close form retired in favour of bare with a test_no_nested_auto_generated_markers invariant guard (#​2422); two more sync helpers aligned with the per-file error channel (#​2427); write_tracked helper extracted and 14 auto-generated outputs marked linguist-generated=true so PR diffs collapse them (#​2409). running-tend skill leads bug-triage asks with wt -vv <command> so a single gist URL replaces multi-step diagnostic chains (#​2415, thanks @​viicslen for the feedback in #​2410).

• CiBranchName::from_branch_ref takes &BranchRef instead of (&str, bool), removing the historical "string from one source, bool from another" footgun. (#​2391)

Release Notes

Fixed

• Interactive alias children (e.g. sw = "wt switch") keep the tty again: Alias execution was piping the template context JSON into each child's stdin, displacing the controlling terminal; interactive commands like wt switch then saw a pipe and bailed with Interactive picker requires an interactive terminal. Hooks still receive the documented JSON-on-stdin contract; aliases now inherit stdin unchanged. (#​2380, thanks @​KieranP for reporting in #​406)

• wt list --remotes stats were shadowed by a same-named local branch: If a user created a local branch literally named origin/foo, the remote row for origin/foo silently reported ahead/behind (and every other integration stat) against the local branch, because git rev-parse prefers refs/heads/ over refs/remotes/. Integration helpers now pass fully-qualified refs; a follow-up refactor makes the disambiguation unrepresentable at the type level by storing full refs on BranchRef. (#​2365, #​2378)

• {{ commit }} resolves to the per-worktree HEAD in wt step for-each on detached worktrees: The hook context was reading HEAD via a process-CWD-keyed cache, so when for-each iterated over sibling worktrees with one on detached HEAD, {{ commit }} resolved to the running worktree's SHA instead of the sibling's. (#​2382)

• Global-scope core.worktree no longer misdetects the repo root in normal non-bare repos: The 0.43.0 repo_path() fast path (#​2350) read core.worktree from the bulk config map, which merges global and system scope — but git itself only honors core.worktree from local config for worktree discovery. When the bulk map reports core.worktree we now delegate to git rev-parse --show-toplevel so git applies its own scope rules. The common case (no core.worktree anywhere) still skips the subprocess. (#​2362)

• post-create hook config is now rejected with an explicit error instead of silently migrating to pre-start: Clears the silent migration ahead of the planned *-start → *-create rename (see #​1571). (#​2361)

Internal

• Branch enumeration consolidated into a single canonical inventory, with follow-on perf wins: Five overlapping for-each-ref accessors in src/git/repository/branches.rs collapsed into two cached scans (refs/heads/ and refs/remotes/), exposed as Repository::local_branches() and remote_branches(). Shared inventory also powers Branch::remotes() (#​2371), strip_remote_prefix (#​2372), and is_remote_tracking_branch (#​2377), dropping a rev-parse/git remote subprocess each. BranchRef stores full refs (#​2378); prewarm_info returns a typed snapshot with HEAD SHA folded in (#​2367); alias on-branch dispatch reuses the cached HEAD SHA (#​2374); list_worktrees caches on RepoCache (#​2375, #​2383); wt list commit subjects batched pre-skeleton, retiring CommitDetailsTask (#​2369, #​2379); picker's speculative preview warm-up primes prewarm_info once (#​2381). (Breaking library API: Repository::list_local_branches, list_remote_branches, list_tracked_upstreams, list_untracked_remote_branches, commit_timestamps, commit_details, current_worktree_info, Branch::upstream_single, and BranchRef { branch, is_remote } fields are removed; Repository::batch_ahead_behind returns ().)

Release Notes

Fixed

• wt step copy-ignored no longer self-lowers priority in the foreground: Since v0.37.0, copy-ignored wrapped its work in taskpolicy -b (macOS) / ionice -c3 (Linux) unconditionally, which throttled disk I/O for interactive runs and synchronous pre-* hooks — not just the background post-start flows the lowering was meant for. Detached background hook pipelines now set an internal sentinel, and copy-ignored only self-lowers when it sees it. Interactive wt step copy-ignored and foreground hooks run at normal priority. See wt step copy-ignored --help → Background-hook priority. (#​2358, thanks @​bram-rongen for reporting #​2342)

• wt step commit no longer panics on large CRLF diffs containing multi-byte UTF-8: parse_diff_sections used str::lines() (strips \n and \r\n) but advanced the byte-offset accumulator by line.len() + 1, under-counting one byte per CRLF line. Once the diff exceeded the 400k filtering threshold the drift landed inside a multi-byte character and panicked with byte index N is not a char boundary. Now iterates with split_inclusive('\n') so offsets match real byte positions regardless of line-ending style. (#​2356, closes #​2355, thanks @​Qnurye for reporting with a minimal reproduction)

• wt step relocate surfaces failed git checkout/git worktree move instead of printing false success: The four raw Cmd::new("git")...run()? call sites in relocate.rs swallowed non-zero exit codes — only spawn errors propagated through ? — so a failed checkout or move returned Ok and the caller printed Relocated 1 worktree. All four sites now route through repo.worktree_at(path).run_command(...), the project's fail-fast git pattern. Triggered most often when worktrunk.default-branch cached a branch that no longer resolves locally. (#​2348)

Improved

• Alias dispatch ~15-20% faster via batched rev-parse: Parent-side alias dispatch was firing four separate git rev-parse subprocesses on the worktree path (--is-inside-work-tree, --show-toplevel, --git-dir, --symbolic-full-name HEAD). A new WorkingTree::prewarm_info folds all four selectors into a single invocation and populates the worktree_roots, git_dirs, and current_branches caches so later accessors hit cache. benches/alias: warm/1 53.3 → 43.5 ms (−19.6%), cold/100 62.1 → 49.7 ms (−18.2%). On systems with slow execve (macOS Gatekeeper, AV), three saved forks translate to ~600 ms per wt <alias>. (#​2352, thanks @​markjaquith for continuing to report #​2322)

• Non-submodule repos no longer pay for a failing submodule probe: Repository::repo_path() used to run git rev-parse --show-toplevel inside .git to resolve the submodule case — that probe fails unconditionally on normal repos, costing ~5 ms per call. Now reads core.worktree directly from the bulk config map (the same signal git itself uses): bare repos short-circuit on core.bare, submodules read core.worktree, normal repos fall through to parent(git_common_dir). hyperfine on a healthy macOS system: wt noop in a normal repo 53.2 → 48.8 ms (1.09×); in a submodule 62.1 → 55.5 ms (1.12×). repo_path() fires ~2× during alias dispatch, so the win compounds.

• pre-start and post-start hook rows say when the hook fires, not just what to put in it: The hook types table rows for pre-start and post-start now match the phrasing of neighbouring rows (pre-switch has "Runs before…", post-merge has "Runs in the target…"): "Runs once when a new worktree is created, blocking post-start/--execute until complete" and "Runs once when a new worktree is created, in the background". (#​2360, thanks @​ortonomy for reporting #​1571)

• Hook docs: Recipes restructured as a table of contents: The "Designing Effective Hooks" umbrella heading was removed; "Recipes" is promoted to a top-level section with each bullet leading with a specifically-named link to its Tips & Patterns section. "Copying untracked files" moved up next to the JSON context section. (#​2349, #​2351)

• Refreshed stale docstrings across recently refactored modules. (#​2354)

Internal

• ahead_behind collapsed into single get-or-insert accessor: cached_ahead_behind was open-coded get-or-insert at the call site. ahead_behind now reads cache.ahead_behind first and falls back to the merge-base + rev-list computation on miss, caching the result. The wt list ahead/behind task collapses from a manual cache check + dual codepath to a single call. batch_ahead_behind still primes the cache in bulk on git ≥ 2.36. (Breaking library API: Repository::cached_ahead_behind removed.) (#​2347)

Release Notes

Improved

• Alias banner is silent when there's nothing to summarize: ◎ Running alias <name> now only prints when the alias has at least one named step worth naming. Single unnamed aliases (ls = "wt list") and all-anonymous pipelines return no announcement — the banner was just echoing the user's typed name. Pipelines with named steps keep their informative summary (◎ Running alias deploy: install; build, lint). -v still prints the bare form as a confirmation line. (#​2339, thanks @​markjaquith for reporting #​2322)

• Alias dispatch ~30% faster via batched git config reads: RepoCache now reads every config key with a single git config --list -z instead of one git config subprocess per key. Config-backed accessors (is_bare, primary_remote, remote_url, default_branch fast path, switch_previous, has_shown_hint, core.fsmonitor, core.pager, and more) resolve via an O(1) map lookup. Writes route through set_config_value / unset_config helpers that update the on-disk config and the in-memory map together. Benchmarked on benches/alias: warm/1 77.4 → 56.9 ms (−29%), cold/100 80.5 → 54.5 ms (−30%) — ~25 ms saved per wt <alias> invocation. (#​2344, #​2346, thanks @​markjaquith for reporting #​2322)

• Further O(1) single-branch upstream lookups on wt merge / wt switch: Follow-up to #​2337. effective_integration_target and the wt switch tracking-info report switched from bulk Branch::upstream() (a for-each-ref over every local branch) to upstream_single() — wt list still uses the bulk cache, but one-shot callers no longer pay for it. (#​2338)

• Stale cached default branch surfaces a clear error with a reset hint: default_branch()'s fast path no lon
