In 2008, GitHub’s developers could have opted to use git format-patch instead of teaching the world to juggle branches. Or they might have chosen to generate pull requests using the git request-pull command that’s existed in Git since 2005 and is still used by the Linux kernel maintainers today2.

I’m getting into stacked branches these day, but I should look into git request-pull too.
