Description

Copilot CLI should be able to create and destroy git worktrees as part of its normal problem-solving workflow. When working on a task, Copilot could spin up a dedicated worktree, do the work in isolation, and clean it up when done. This would make it safer and cleaner to work on multiple tasks in parallel without risk of context or file conflicts between sessions.
