Managing parallel development with git worktrees involves creating a shared base branch from main, initializing separate worktrees for each topic, and coordinating topic PRs into that base branch before merging to main.

A manager and child session workflow uses a central manager session to coordinate multiple child sessions, each running in its own git worktree. The manager orchestrates topic PRs into a shared base branch before merging the consolidated root PR to main.

Setting up multiple git worktrees starts by initializing a base branch from main, then creating an isolated worktree for each topic branch. Environment setup and cleanup steps are handled between topics and the final root PR.

Yes, you can split related work into topics by managing individual topic branches in separate worktrees, then coordinating their topic PRs into a shared base branch to form a single consolidated root PR before merging to main.

The best way to coordinate several PRs targeting a shared base branch is using a manager session to orchestrate child sessions in separate worktrees, managing each topic branch lifecycle and merging them into the base before the final root PR.

No special dependencies are required to run this git worktree workflow. It relies on standard git worktree functionality to manage topic branches, coordinate PRs, and handle environment setup and cleanup without external dependencies.
