If you want a checkout of the root commit, assuming there’s only one, something like
git rev-list | sed -n \$p | xargs git switch --detach
ought to work. You could feed something similar to git-worktree. But it’s a little harder to “go forward” with Git’s data model, and I didn’t totally understand “travel back to the latest ones.”
