The Crouch Jump. Not really a glitch, but it was probably not intended by the developers.
Super easy too pull off and extremely useful for some skips and also quite funny at some places.

By crouching in mid-air, your hitbox is decreased by the same scale as if the player were on the ground.
Interestingly, in the air it is as if the character would pull her legs up, as opposed to when on the ground; then she ducks.
This allows you to reach places higher than usual.

It is important to crouch as late as possible though, otherwise you lose height!

In this video I showed two examples in yavin2:

By crouch jumping you can reach the torch thing and from that you can jump up the wall.
Sadly, there are clip walls all around, so there is absolutely no way to go out of bounds.
Still funny.

Here, I jump onto the tree and then crouch up the wall. As you can see, there are some textures "missing" (actually, these brushes are covered with the Caulk texture. It is used for surfaces you cannot see, hence they do not need a texture. Save the frames!)
Now, you can skip the wall and the trigger that triggers the cutscene with Rosh.
Unfortunately, the door only opens after the training robot is destroyed, so this is absolutely useless.
But funny.
