git-spice CLI

git-spice (gs) is a CLI tool for managing stacked Git branches. It tracks relationships between branches, enables easy navigation, and creates stacked Pull Requests on GitHub or Merge Requests on GitLab.

Key Concepts

• Stack: Collection of branches stacked on top of each other
• Trunk: The default branch (main/master) with no base
• Upstack: Branches above the current branch
• Downstack: Branches below the current branch (not including trunk)
• Restacking: Rebasing a branch onto its base to maintain linear history
