You can make a PR against your feature branch and have that reviewed. Then the final PR against your man branch is indeed huge, but all the changes have already been reviewed, so it's just LGTM and merge that bad boy!
But what if you have multiple PRs that depend on each other? Or are you saying only have one PR open at a time? That sounds like it'd be very slow?
I suppose it is possible to have two PR that have changes that depend on each other. In general this just requires refactoring... typically making a third PR removing the circular dependency.
It sounds like your policy is to keep PR around a long time, maybe? Generally we try to have ours merged within a few days, before bitrot sets in.
Sorry, my comment was unclear. I didn't mean a circular dependency, just PRs that have a chain of dependencies (e.g. PR 100 that depends on 99, that depends on 98, that depends on 97)
They're usually not around for a long time, but there can be relatively large chains if someone is quickly adding new features.
