I use Claude Code. If you gitignore CLAUDE.local.md, you won't have versioning/history for that file (which you will have if you use git-dupe).

git-dupe also supports linked worktrees.

Fair point, a gitignored file has no version history. git-dupe gives you that, and worktree support.

Substrate, for example, keeps the history of edits to every fact, and the source of it.
