What changed
Netlify now creates a Deploy Preview for every pull request in a GitHub stack when the stack ultimately targets your project’s production branch (usually main). You can review and share each layer of a larger change before it merges. A GitHub stacked pull request showing a successful Netlify Deploy Preview check GitHub Stacked Pull Requests help teams split a larger update into smaller, connected pull requests. Each pull request can focus on one step of the work, making changes easier to review and merge in sequence. Previously, Netlify only created a Deploy Preview for the first pull request in your stack while additional pull requests in the stack didn't get their own Deploy Previews. Now, every pull request in the stack gets its own Deploy Preview. There’s nothing new to configure. Create and update your stack in GitHub as usual, and Netlify automatically adds a Deploy Preview to each eligible pull request.
