I’d say most of the GoF patterns evolved in a C++ toolchain (and then the Java junior devs started a cargo cult around them that has survived to this day). The book was never as language-independent as the authors envisioned it to be—in fact I’d argue that with the right programming language design the patterns happen implicitly or are obsolete.

This isn’t TikTok, we require context

Unfortunately some developer tools fail to work correctly in separate worktrees. I used them for a while but had to give them up. For example, Maven’s release plugin cannot reliably create tags / branches if you’re in a separate worktree.
