# Gitwhat
## Overview
Provide a short, formatted git status snapshot for the current working directory and any sibling worktrees.
## Quick start
- Run `scripts/gitwhat.sh` from the target directory.
- If not inside a git repo, report the cwd and exit.
## Output fields
- CWD
- Branch (or detached@<sha>)
- Repo root
- Worktree (yes/no + name or main)
- Status (clean/dirty with counts)
- Other worktrees (clean/dirty per worktree)
## Notes
- Keep output compact and use the script output as-is unless the user asks for more detail.
- Do not use network calls; rely on local git commands.
