🚀 GitHub introduces Stacked Pull Requests (Public Preview)
Managing large features often means juggling multiple PRs, each dependent on the other. Until now, that’s been messy. GitHub’s new Stacked Pull Requests make it easier to break work into smaller, reviewable chunks while keeping dependencies clear.
🔑 What’s New
📚 Stacking support → Create PRs that build on top of each other, instead of one massive PR.
🔄 Automatic tracking → GitHub shows the dependency chain so reviewers know what’s blocking what.
✅ Better reviews → Smaller, focused PRs mean faster reviews and fewer merge conflicts.
🧩 Workflow fit → Ideal for teams working on complex features, refactors, or multi-step rollouts.
💡 Takeaway: Stacked PRs help teams ship faster, with cleaner reviews and less chaos. If you’ve ever struggled with “mega PRs,” this is a game-changer.
