This sounds intriguing. Additionally, I wanted the community to evolve our approach to providing PR feedback. One of the unintended consequences was that it became a tool for people to exploit their workers.

The repo seems to move from "adevinta" (a well known company in the EU tech) to "runetes". Anyone to tell us the story?

Who is creating a separate PR for each commit on their feature/fix branch?

sounds like crazy town.

I just dont understand why someone would operate like this.

Lets assume you're squash merging your feature branchs to your local main, then you're raising the them as prs.

why would you do this?

As someone who much prefers Gerrit's UI/UX over GitHub's UI, I was disappointed that this wasn't replicating the UI for GH reviews.

Edit: Just to be clear, this is not a blemish on this project. More a lament and a wish someone would create such a thing for those of us forced to leave Gerrit behind for... GitHub. =/

Does it use Github's new stacked PR feature?

Edit: apparently stacked PRs on GH are older than I thought; the readme references a 2024 blog post about it.
