GitHub I understand, the tooling here is terrible. I have my own scripts to solve this, but there are fundamental issues with how GitHub treats branches. But git? Huh?
The "stacked diff" workflow is more commonly known as a patch set or patch series, and is as old as git itself. See the LKML for examples. Tools like Gerrit or Sourcehut promote this workflow as a first-class citizen. It's how you use git over a mailing list anyways.
