Why using a worktree? I will simply commit my WIP modifications on the dev branch.
Switch branch to work on the bugfix. And when Im finished I move back to the development branch? Why is this worse than doing this worktree stuff?
Because spending 1h+ recompiling everything whenever a colleagues points out a typo in a merge request is a waste of time
did I use worktree the wrong way? the subfolder with the repository where the worktree was placed, has to be recompiled anyway?
If you have a build directory per worktree then no. Every branch is built independently
