# To Stack

Turn one large change into a **stack**: PR 1 on the base branch, each later PR on the one below it. Reviewers read one concern at a time, and the top of the stack is byte-for-byte the tree you already tested.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

- A PR number or URL, or a branch. None → the current branch and its PR.
- `--each` — land each PR on the base in order, each with its own version bump and CHANGELOG section. Default: merge from the top down into PR 1, which lands as one squash and one release.

## Workflow

1. **Resolve.**
   - Dirty tree → stop and ask to commit or stash.
   - A PR → `gh pr view <PR> --json headRefName,baseRefName`, then `gh pr checkout <PR>`. A branch → check it out. Its head is `<tip>`; its base is the PR's `baseRefName`, else the default branch.
