Git Town 14.0 improves the developer experience around uncommitted and stacked changes.

BREAKING CHANGES

git hack, git append, and git prepend no longer sync the branch lineage in the presence of uncommitted changes. This allows you to commit your changes first before pulling in more changes from other developers. They still sync if you call them without uncommitted changes (#3198).

New Features

git town compress (aliasable to git compress by re-running git town config setup) squashes all commits in a branch into a single commit. By default the new commit uses the commit message of the first commit in the branch. You can provide a custom commit message using the -m switch the same way as in git commit. The --stack option compresses all branches in a change stack. Git Town does not compress perennial, observed, contribution, and non-active parked branches (#1529, #2086).

git hack, git append, and git prepend are faster due to creating and checking out the new branch using a single Git operation (#3313).
