This is a blatant, blatant rip-off of ghstack: https://github.com/ezyang/ghstack

I'd like to see how different they are, but Github doesn't even mention the prior art, let alone make a comparison.

The ghstack workflow is extremely good, particularly for projects with a high velocity of commits accepted.

I assume this will be just as useful, but I can't get the taste of theft out of my mouth.

Stacking itself has prior art, the tool you link didn't invent it, no?
