Part of the idea behind stacked PRs is to keep your commits focused and with isolated changes that are meaningful.

A stacked PR allows you to construct a sequence of PRs in a way that allows you to iterate on and merge the isolated commits, but blocks merging items higher in the stack until the foundational changes are merged.

What can stacked PRs do that a series of well-organized commits in a single branch can't?
