Onto flag not working about git-pile HOT 3 CLOSED

On second thought, perhaps I'm misunderstanding the use of the onto flag. I was reading this as "submit a PR with all of these commits", but perhaps it is used for creating a PR with another PR as base? i.e main <- firstPR <- secondPR where the secondPR is created using the onto flag.

Yup, I have misunderstood the use of this, sorry about that. However this flag still yields unknown flag. Will create another issue describing this.

You're correct that it's for submitting chained PRs. As far as submitting a PR with multiple commits, git-pile kinda encourages single commit PRs, but in the case that isn't what you want I often make my commits on my main branch, do git submitpr FIRST_SHA, then immediately do git updatepr FIRST_SHA to add the HEAD commit to the created PR.
