The Problem πŸ˜•β€‹

Backend Dev: "I want to merge my frontend branch into main, but when I try git checkout main, Git says 'fatal: main is already checked out at ../EcommerceWebsite3-backend'. I can't checkout main because it's being used in my backend worktree!"

Frontend Mentor: "Ah! This is a perfect situation to use one of Git's hidden superpowers - pushing to a local branch without checking it out!"
