So, I had a play with GitHub stacked PRs to see what all the fuss is about. Forgive my ignorance, but won’t having all these layers of branches result in a giant mess with too much dependent work in progress? I would much prefer folks (and their agents) to build independently using fakes after agreeing on boundaries and API contracts. Stacked PRs remind me of Gerrit relationship chains, which traumatised me throughout the 2010s. Am I missing something?
