I know there is a way to display parent headlines using the agenda prefix. Is there a simple way to do this conditionally for certain subtrees?
Here's my use case. I have an org file machines.org for keeping track of what I do to various machines I work on/administer (though I use that term hesitantly and extremely lightly :)). I keep TODO items for each machine for things like backups and updates. Sometimes I'll have an item that has subtasks and I don't want to make the parent heading a TODO item because it will clutter my agenda view. I just want the subtasks to show, but I'd like to have some reference to the overarching task. For example: * Tmux ** TODO Install ** TODO Set up basic keybindings ** TODO Fine tune config These showing up on their own could be a little esoteric. What I've been doing so far is just setting a CATEGORY property under Tmux so I can see what the top task is, but ideally I'd like to be able to set just this subtree to show Tmux/Install, etc in the agenda and everything else display normally. Is this possible? Thanks in advance Pete
