The latest version of Tower for Windows introduces a new "Restack Branch" feature, a new "Sync" action, and several visual enhancements to the user interface.

Are you a fan of Stacked Branches? Do you like keeping your local repository in sync with the remote? If so, we believe you'll enjoy this release! 😎

Tower 8.0 marks the beginning of our ambitious "Tower Workflows" project by introducing "Branch Dependency" functionalities and the new "Restack" feature.

By incorporating Branch Dependencies, Tower can now easily track all the parent branches of a branch and provide the ability to "restack" the branch, along with all its parent branches, back to the "trunk" branch.

Restacking is especially useful for workflows that involve stacked branches, such as the "Stacked Pull Requests" workflow.

Manually updating branches can be a cumbersome task, as each child branch needs to be rebased onto its parent branch. With Tower 8.0, restacking is only a couple of clicks away!
