✨ New Stacked PRs CLI

Aviator’s stacked PRs CLI got a massive upgrade!!

Stacked PRs CLI

av is a free and open-source CLI built and managed by Aviator to manage Stacked PRs on top of GitHub. You can download and use the CLI even without creating an Aviator account.

What happened?

For the past couple of months, we have been working on a massive rewrite on the CLI and that is now generally available.

What’s new

Interactive stack sync

• Conditionally sync trunk branch

• Conditionally push to origin

• Cleanup merged branches

• Auto-resolve merge conflicts with merged branches

Restack locally

A new command av stack restack to restack the branches without pushing to remote.

Stack visualization

av stack tree provides a clean visual of the entire stack and state of each branch.

Interactive switch

Use av stack switch to switch between branches of the stack.

Adopt branches or stacks

av stack adopt lets you adopt existing stacks or branches that were created without the CLI.

Other improvements

• av commit ammend and av commit create prevents users from accidentally updating a merged branch.

• av stack switch can take a branch name or a PR URL. You can directly jumpto the branch by pasting the URL.

• Support non-origin remote as the upstream.

• av stack tidy to clean out merged / deleted branches

• av stack orphan to remove a branch or a stack from tracking

• Enable writing stack trees to PR bodies

• Performance improvements across all commands including stack sync, and stack adopt.
