HALtheWise·May 27, 2025Recommendation phrase
I highly recommend revup, it allows managing and uploading stacked (or arbitrary trees of) PRs to Github, including adding a comment that shows approximate revision-to-revision diffs if you want it to. I don't actually think that per-commit reviewing obviates the desire for stacked PRs, for example I often have some PRs in my stack that are not yet ready for review or merging. https://github.com/Skydio/revup

HALtheWise·Dec 10, 2024Recommendation phrase
If you're looking for a polished way to manage a stacked-PRs workflow with git and GitHub, I highly recommend Revup. It was invented at Skydio when I worked there, and quickly developed a cult following among engineers there. I wouldn't describe it as simpler than default git, especially since you still mostly use git commands (like rebase -i) for lots of tasks, but for power users it provides a really nice workflow. https://github.com/Skydio/revup
In Ask HN: Git Alternatives – Sapling vs. Jj
Today we've open sourced revup, a commit-based code review tool that we've been using internally at Skydio for the last year and a half. The goal of revup is to make it incredibly easy to manage and upload code reviews. Revup's powerful model allows for multiple chains of dependent and independent reviews to be developed on a single working branch. At upload time, revup will create all necessary branches for you in the background without touching your working files. Independent changes can be merged independently through the github interface or with whatever CI your repository uses. On top of that, revup provides more features, including - Managing reviewers and labels - Adding graphs / tables to PRs to track dependencies and upload history - Rebase detection to save time and CI cost - Many more! see the README and documentation You can p
