I see very many PRs belonging to the bytecodealliance
being updated with forced pushes.
I've seen at least one request on a particular PR to use the simpler push and then let the maintainer squash merge when they are ready and that made a lot of sense to me. I too find it hard to follow progress of PRs when an entire bank of diffs has to be looked through again.
But it happens so often, I wonder if I'm in the minority and just not knowing about some way to use GH from the browser to see what's changed?
I see GH provides a compare
button. I guess that solves my immediate concern. Still I wonder why forced pushes are so common here.
One reason I force push PR branches (in general) is that I prefer to rebase rather than merge when pulling upstream changes into the branch
