## What it is
spr is a Go CLI tool that manages stacked pull requests on GitHub, turning each commit on a single branch into its own ordered, auto-synced pull request. It provides commands like update, status, merge, amend, and sync to streamline small-PR review workflows without extra services.

## Use cases
- manage stacked pull requests on github
- turn each commit into its own pull request
- split a large feature into small reviewable PRs
- avoid juggling stacked feature branches and rebases
- merge a stack of dependent PRs incrementally
- amend a commit in a stack and sync PRs

## When to choose
- your team uses GitHub and wants faster reviews via small stacked PRs
- you want stacked-diff workflow without extra merge bots or services
- you prefer working on one branch while keeping PRs ordered and in sync

## When to avoid
- you use GitLab, Bitbucket, or another non-GitHub forge
- your team prefers single large PRs or trunk-based squash merges
- you need a GUI-based PR management tool
