When creating one is slow, Claude Code suggests checking out only some folders with the `sparsePaths` setting. The example in that tip is now `{\"worktree\": {\"sparsePaths\": [\".claude\", \"src\", \"packages\/foo\"]}}`. Before, it did not include `.claude`.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe `.claude` folder holds your project's Claude Code settings. A partial checkout that leaves it out would lose those settings in the worktree.\n\n- Area: Worktrees\n- Names: `sparsePaths`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
