Seems interesting! I've been very unhappy with Github workflow and UI for PRs. It's insane that each time you rebase a PR, you lose all your existing comments on that PR (i.e. they are no longer attached to lines in the UI).

Does anyone know if you need Graphite to see a PR once it's been merged in the Github repo? I'm curious about how locked you in when you start using Graphite.

Hey @juliennakache UX designer at Graphite here,

All PRs will be shown with the proper draft/open/closed/merged states on GitHub and on Graphite, we do a lot of work to make sure that the real-time status is synced between the two so that you can adopt Graphite without disrupting your team's existing workflow.

Would love to know other pain-points you have around GitHub so that we could make Graphite even better for you and your team

Hi, sorry just seeing this.

What about the comments on commits? Are those all displayed in the Github PR when it's merged, and attached to all the correct lines, even the ones that were made on branches that were rebased?

Thanks!

Not locked in at all!

Graphite syncs bidirectionally with GitHub so that you can see the same information in realtime across platforms. This also means you can use Graphite even if the rest of your team isn't yet!
