What is SPR in the context of Jujutsu?

SPR (Super Pull Request) is a tool used with the Jujutsu (jj) version control system to manage pull requests, particularly stacked PRs, by creating and managing synthetic base branches on GitHub.

Why must I land PRs in a stack from the bottom up?

Landing from the bottom ensures that each subsequent PR in a stack can be cleanly rebased onto the updated main branch. Landing from the middle or top creates orphaned PRs and breaks the dependency chain.

Does this skill handle synthetic base branches automatically?

Yes, jj spr land automatically retargets the PR base from its synthetic branch to master before squash-merging, ensuring your code lands on the correct default branch.

Can I merge PRs directly through the GitHub UI?

No, you should always use the jj spr land command. Merging on GitHub directly bypasses SPR's synthetic commit management and can result in changes landing on dead-end branches instead of master.

Developer Tools

Manages the landing and merging of Jujutsu Super Pull Requests while maintaining clean repository states and handling stacked PR dependencies.

This skill provides comprehensive guidance and automated workflows for landing pull requests when using the Jujutsu (jj) version control system with the SPR (Super Pull Request) tool. It handles the complexities of squash-merging stacked changes, automatically retargeting synthetic base branches to the default branch, and cleaning up local and remote environments post-merge. It is essential for developers managing deep stacks of PRs who need to ensure that landing a base PR doesn't break the dependencies of subsequent PRs in the stack, preventing manual merge errors and repository corruption.
