To start an epic branch, you create a dedicated branch like epic/e14/{name} directly from your development baseline and establish an initial scope commit documenting objectives, in-scope items, out-of-scope items, and planned features.
An initial scope commit is a foundational record created on a new epic branch that documents the epic's objectives, in-scope items, out-of-scope items, and planned features to enable structured progression and isolation for multi-feature initiatives.
No specific dependencies are required to launch an epic with a dedicated branch and initial scope. The workflow operates independently to isolate large bodies of work and emit telemetry for lifecycle tracking from your existing development branch.
The best way to structure epic branches is using an epic/e{N}/{epic-slug} naming convention launched from your development branch, which lays the groundwork for subsequent stories and features to nest within the isolated epic workflow.
Epic lifecycle tracking emits telemetry events when the epic branch is created and the scope commit is established, monitoring readiness for the next design phase and eventual merge back to the development branch.
Yes, this approach is designed for multi-feature initiatives, providing isolation by creating a dedicated epic branch from development and explicitly documenting in-scope and out-of-scope items to manage complex scope boundaries.
