alt Hacker NewsCould you explain parallel branches vs what git offers today?
If it's to enable multi-agent scenarios, don't worktrees (at least in the local sense) allow for this?

My understanding is parallel branches allow multiple changelists to be applied to a single workspace. eg you can have multiple WIP fix branches active in your feature branch workspace and not worry about polluting your feature branch with unrelated/duplicated commits.
Worktrees are multiple workspaces, each in their own directory, sharing a single git repo. This is helpful because you reduce the overhead and the CLI command juggling for fully separate clones.
I have no idea what approach is better for your multi-agent scenario.
