Can say from my professional experience, that this is definitely a problem worth solving.

<3 curious where have you experience this the most? We are also trying to figure out at what point does the problem become acute.
Here’s one. I currently have about five or six small PRs open for bug fixes and minor features. However, they’ve languished a bit in review and haven’t been merged yet. In the meantime, I’ve started a fairly significant refactor. It’s not too complicated but involves moving files and changing some core structures. I am dreading having to rebase those open PRs!
Interesting, you can potentially use MQ for automatic rebasing as well, but if there is a merge conflict, MQ will not be able to resolve it for you. If a rebase can be automatically resolved, then MQ will update the branch for you.
