- Readme seems generated then minimized to the extreme, to a point where I cannot follow it anymore.
> The JavaScript init function initializes exactly `at`; Git-root selection and `--here` are CLI behavior.
What does this mean? Maybe I'm missing something
Also some of the stuff in this README seems like it should be in comments above/in their respected code blocks.
It also did not tell me why rift is a better alternative. Because it's fast? git worktrees are also fast.
- git worktree (or any COW snapshot like this) still leaves you reinstalling node_modules per tree and fighting over a dev server port. That's the actual cost, and none of these tools touch it.
So I gave up on parallelizing inside one repo. I run agents across different projects — one repo each — and stay serial within a single project.
- Don't see the real reason to use this, as well as readme file is too short and give no actual info what is the better versus existing tools. Can be called Yet another :D ...
- Is it just an experimental tool by opencode team? If there is some article about this tool, I would love to read it. It’s not clear to me why I should use this instead of git worktree.
- this is a 1 day old vibe coded experiment where i'm exploring some ideas
- I wrote something similar with go, but MacOS only.
Creating a worktree became instant, but the bottleneck shifted from that to git needing to build its index. Claude code runs `git status` in the background, meaning any speed gains are instantly gone.

- Currently it just sounds like an alternative to work trees, but with no explanation on how it’s better. Seems early stages, use of btrfs is cool, but unsure why I’d use this right now

- If that achieves quick COW copies of whole repo and works on Mac OS that's the solution I've been looking for last few weeks. Internets and Claude were insisting that such copies are possible only on Linux via OverlayFS. Seamless switching between unrelated features in the same repo – here I come!
- Neat! Would a similar approach work with ZFS instead of btrfs?

- Could be good option for rust projects with huge compile artifacts. Saving space and rebuild time.

- Does it work well when we have gitsubmodules?
I had some issues regarding that.

- Love to see btrfs subvolumes getting used!!
I spent some time & tokens starting to work on jujutsu support for opencode. Whose workspace support is so so good. I wonder if JJ does reflink-- maybe gonna go add that, as low hanging fruit.
