+# Stacked PRs
+
+Stacked PRs split a large feature into small, easy-to-review PRs where each builds on the previous
+one. The general mechanics are the standard [Graphite](https://graphite.dev/) stacking workflow —
+this file covers only what is specific to sentry-java.
+
+## Why a Collection Branch
+
+```
+main ← collection-branch ← stack-pr-1 ← stack-pr-2 ← stack-pr-3 ← ...
+```
+
+A **collection branch** is created from `main` and targets `main`. The first stack PR targets it
+rather than `main`, and each later PR targets the previous stack PR's branch.
+
+It exists because PRs targeting `main` are **squash**-merged, which causes repeated merge conflicts
+when syncing a stack. Stack PRs are therefore **merge-committed** into the collection branch, and
+only the collection branch is squash-merged into `main` at the end — giving `main` one clean commit
+for the whole feature.
+
+Create it with an empty commit, so GitHub allows opening a PR:
+
+```bash
+git commit --allow-empty -m "collection: <topic>"
+```
+
+Push it and open its PR against `main` right away — it is the PR the whole stack is eventually
+squash-merged through, and it carries the stack list like every other PR. Give it a plain title
+(`<type>(<scope>): <Topic>`, no `[<Topic> <N>]` bracket) and no merge method reminder.
+
+## Rules That Will Destroy a Stack If Broken
+
+**Never update the collection branch yourself.** Never merge, fast-forward, or push stack branch
+commits into it. It stays at its initial position (the empty commit on `main`) until the user merges
+stack PRs through GitHub one by one. Fast-forwarding it makes GitHub auto-merge and delete every
+stack PR branch, destroying the entire stack.
+
+**Never amend or force-push a stack branch.** No `git commit --amend`, `--force`, or
+`--force-with-lease` on a branch that is part of a stack — a force-push can cause GitHub to
+auto-merge or auto-close the other PRs in the stack. If a commit needs fixing, add a fixup commit.
+
+**Sync only between adjacent stack branches**, by merging forward — never into the collection branch.
+Prefer merge over rebase; only rebase if explicitly requested.
+
+**Do not merge PRs.** Only the user merges them, bottom to top.
+
+## PR Title Naming
+
+Include the topic name and a sequential number in brackets:
+
+```
+<type>(<scope>): [<Topic> <N>] <Subject>
+```
+
+Examples:
+- `feat(core): [Global Attributes 1] Add scope-level attributes API`
+- `feat(core): [Global Attributes 2] Wire scope attributes into LoggerApi and MetricsApi`
+
+## Stack List in PR Description
+
+Every PR in the stack — **including the collection branch PR** — must have a stack list **at the top
+of its description**, before the `## :scroll: Description` section. When a PR is added, update the
+description on **all** PRs in the stack. The stack list is also how you enumerate a stack: read it
+off any PR body rather than guessing from branch names, which may use different prefixes.
+
+```markdown
+## PR Stack (<Topic>)
+
+- #5118
+- #5120
+- #5121
+
+---
+```
+
+No status column — GitHub already shows that. The `---` separates the stack list from the rest of
+the description.
+
+**Merge method reminder:** on stack PRs (not the collection branch PR), end the description with:
+
+```markdown
+> ⚠️ **Merge this PR using a merge commit** (not squash). Only the collection branch is squash-merged into main.
+```
+
+Updating every PR's stack list means editing several descriptions — follow the procedure in
+`SKILL.md` § "Editing PR Descriptions".
