FAQPage Schema

How do I manage stacked pull requests for complex multi-branch workflows?▼

Stacked pull requests organize related changes into a coherent stack for focused reviews. You create a stack with gt create and incrementally build PRs using gt up, gt down, and gt submit.

What is the best way to reorder branches within a pull request stack?▼

Reordering branches in a pull request stack is handled natively by Graphite commands. You can navigate the stack with gt up and gt down, then apply gt restack to update parent-child relationships across multiple branches.

Can I submit an entire stack of pull requests for review at once?▼

Yes, submitting an entire stack for review is supported. After building your stack with gt create, you use gt submit to manage parent-child relationships and push the full stack of related pull requests for review simultaneously.

Do I need to use standard git commands alongside Graphite for branch tracking?▼

Standard git commands are used alongside Graphite for branch tracking and management. The workflow conforms to both gt-specific operations like gt track and gt rename, and underlying git operations to maintain stack structure.

How does navigating up and down a pull request stack work?▼

Navigating a pull request stack works by moving sequentially through parent-child branch relationships. You use gt up and gt down to move between branches, or jump directly to the top or bottom to view the full stack structure.
