### Dependency Management
|
|
257
|
+
|
|
258
|
+
Manage task dependencies to create execution sequences and prevent circular relationships:
|
|
259
|
+
|
|
260
|
+
| Action | Example |
|
|
261
|
+
|-------------|------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
262
|
+
| Add dependencies | `backlog task edit 7 --dep task-1 --dep task-2` |
|
|
263
|
+
| Add multiple deps | `backlog task edit 7 --dep task-1,task-5,task-9` |
|
|
264
|
+
| Create with deps | `backlog task create "Feature" --dep task-1,task-2` |
|
|
265
|
+
| View dependencies | `backlog task 7` (shows dependencies in task view) |
|
|
266
|
+
| Validate dependencies | Use task commands to automatically validate dependencies |
|
|
267
|
+
|
|
268
|
+
**Dependency Features:**
|
|
269
|
+
- **Automatic validation**: Prevents circular dependencies and validates task existence
|
|
270
|
+
- **Flexible formats**: Use `task-1`, `1`, or comma-separated lists like `1,2,3`
|
|
271
|
+
- **Visual sequences**: Dependencies create visual execution sequences in board view
|
|
272
|
+
- **Completion tracking**: See which dependencies are blocking task progress
