This article explains that git worktrees do not provide true isolation for AI coding agents, as they share hooks, config, and refs with the parent repository, allowing an agent to execute arbitrary code on the host. Benchmarks show that properly isolated clones have comparable performance, challenging the assumption that worktrees are both isolated and cheap.
Charlie Marsh shares an opinion that creating a Git tag should be the last step in a release pipeline, not the trigger.
