Stacked Git

Stacked Git, StGit for short, is an application for managing Git commits as a stack of patches.

With a patch stack workflow, multiple patches can be developed concurrently and efficiently, with each patch focused on a single concern, resulting in both a clean Git commit history and improved productivity.

For a complete introduction to StGit, see the Stacked Git homepage.
