The easiest way to identify a workspace is by which branch it’s on. For instance, this workspace is on the scroll-to-bottom-btn branch: Sidebar (The secondary name shown, warsaw-v2, is the directory name.) When you create a new workspace, Conductor will create a new branch for it. When you start your first chat, Conductor will instruct the agent to rename this branch to match what you’re working on.

Switching branches

If what you’re working on changes, you can check out a different branch:
git checkout some-other-feature
…or rename the current branch:
git branch -m new-name
…or create a new branch:
git checkout -b new-branch

Starting from an existing branch

If you have an existing branch and you want to start a new workspace from it, you can follow these steps:
  1. Use + shift + N or click the ... icon next to the “New workspace” button
  2. Choose the “Branches” tab and select a branch
You could also create a new workspace and then switch to the branch you want using the instructions in the “Switching branches” section above.

One workspace per branch

A branch can only be checked out in one workspace at a time. If you want to check out the scroll-to-bottom-btn branch in tokyo, but you already have that branch checked out in warsaw, try one of these:
  • In tokyo, run git checkout -b scroll-to-bottom-btn-2 scroll-to-bottom-btn to create a new branch based off of scroll-to-bottom-btn
  • In warsaw, switch to any other branch (e.g., git checkout -b dummy), then in tokyo run git checkout scroll-to-bottom-btn
