🛠️ git-dupe – Version private files alongside a public Git repo

Summary
git-dupe is a tool that allows two Git repositories to share the same worktree by versioning private files alongside a public Git repository. It lets users maintain version control for sensitive or workflow-specific files without committing them to the public project repository.

Why it’s interesting
It solves the problem of versioning location-sensitive private files in a project without committing them to the public repository by overlapping two repositories in the same worktree.

Target user
Developers who need to version private workflow files or notes inside public Git repositories.
