Git Worktrees for Pull Requests (git-wtpr)

Use git wtpr to create or switch to a worktree checked out at a PR head. Builds on git-wt — prefer this over gh pr checkout when isolation in a worktree is needed.

Usage

git wtpr <number|url> [git-wt flags...]
git wtpr <number|url> -d | -D

Examples:

git wtpr 25
git wtpr https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/3984
git wtpr 25 -D                                    # remove that PR worktree

Interactive use (with git-wtpr --init fish) cds into the worktree, same as git wt. Do not pass --nocd unless you only need the path.

Confirm availability with command -v git-wtpr or git-wtpr --help.

Behaviour

Resolves the PR with gh pr view (number or URL).
Ensures the current clone matches the PR repository.
Fetches pull/<n>/head from the remote.
Creates or switches a worktree via git wt on the PR head branch name.
If the head branch is main/master, uses pr-<number> instead.
Shell integration cds into that worktree (unless --nocd / wt.nocd).

Status goes to stderr. The worktree path is the last stdout line.

With -d (safe) or -D (force) the PR worktree and its branch are deleted instead — the PR is still resolved to get the branch name, but step 3 is skipped.

Workflow for agents

Run from the correct repository clone (not a random directory).
Use git wtpr --nocd <pr> — shell cd does not persist across tool calls, so capture the printed path and use it as the working directory.
Verify inside the worktree: git branch --show-current and git status --short.
To clean up afterwards, run git wtpr <pr> -D from the same clone (or git wt -D <branch>). For other lifecycle operations (list, rename), use the git-wt skill.
