We are attempting to use multiple trunks but when other people try to run

gt get

on a branch that has a none default trunk they receive this error:

ERROR: Cannot perform this operation on untracked branch <name of second trunk branch>

. This makes it seem like it's not seeing the base branch as a trunk correctly. Is there anything special to do workflow wise when multiple people are working on a non default trunk?

You might need to add a 2nd trunk branch? In the

gt config

UI, you can change the default trunk and add additional trunks. We have 3 trunks configured in our repos,

preview

(default branch in GitHub, where most PRs go),

main

and

hotfix

and we haven't had that issue afaik?

Hey all - Ally is right here. For multiple trunk workflows, each developer needs to configure the non-default trunk in their local Graphite CLI setup before working with branches based on it. The documented setup is to add the branch as an additional trunk:

gt trunk --add <trunk-name>

You can confirm it is configured with:

gt trunk --all

Once that trunk is configured locally,

gt get

should work with branches based on it as part of the normal multi-trunk workflow. Docs: https://graphite.com/docs/multiple-trunks#develop-on-multiple-trunk-branches If the trunk already appears in

gt trunk --all

and

gt get

still reports it as untracked, please send the exact

gt get

command, the full output, and

gt --version

.

Thank you, the devs were running gt trunk add but we'll double check and try again.
