Absolutely everything gets easier when you lower your work in progress.
- happytoexplain 10mo agoThis seems idealistic. It's very normal to be working on a feature that depends on a not-yet-merged feature.
- glenjamin 10mo agoI invite you to look into feature flagging. It is entirely viable to never have more than 1 or 2 open pull requests on any particular code repository, and to use continuous delivery practices to keep deploying small changes to production 1 at a time. That's exactly how I've worked for the past decade or so.
