Just use subbranches and merge changes down? 😅 Never had issues with that

If I stack my 50 prs and the first one gets rejected, do I need to re-do the other 49 based on the initial one?

I'm so confused cause you can already do this by branching off your previous pr, setting that branch as the base branch, and turning on deleting of head branches on merge 😅😅😅😅

I mean you can already essentially do this? Just branch off of one PR branch and start the next task

I still don't understand how this is revolutionary, I've been stacking p.rs on github/gitlab for 4 years by pointing sub branches to each other, or is this different?

Fix for a poor project and team management. If you wait too long for a review maybe a PR is too big? Or maybe the dev culture is not as it should be? Fix the root cause, not adapt.

They need to fix how these work with squashed merges. It creates false merge conflicts which require forced pushes.

Yeah still not a big fan of this, if we want to split one big pr into chunks we can still use different commits, this is only one more layer(commit->pr->stacked pr)

Whenever I get tagged to review a stacked PR, I know I’m in for a horrible time.

As the author mentioned, usually I just create a new PR to merge to the feature branch of the previous PR instead of main to see only new changes, once first PR is merged you change the branch to merge to main and that’s it.

I feel like this just makes more work for the person reviewing the PR

Been using Graphite at work for a long time and stacks are a game changer esp in monorepos but it takes a while for folks to get used to it. You iterate quicker, your reviews are smaller, PRs are more atomic, and AI performs better. You can clear context and work slice by slice rather than one larger PR where context rot becomes an issue. I don’t see how I could ever go back to stackless

You can literally merge the latest commits to your branch from main and your changes will still be in place lol

good luck in your third PR where you used changes from unmerged PR1, and then someone requesting changes on PR1. causing to rewrite whole PR3
