    Description

      Large pull requests are hard to review. Individual commits are much simpler. However, comments on a commit are lost when the branch is rebased. So all comments need to be on the pull request. My team makes a lot of use of re-basing when updating branches based on code reviews.

      My current workflow:

      1. Open the pull request in two tabs
      2. In one tab, go to the commit section, go to a commit, and review the code.
      3. When I have a comment to make, go to the other tab and find the same change in the "overview" section - add my comment there.
      4. Repeat. Unless I accidently makea comment on the commit - then delete the comment, re-create it on the pull request.

      I would love to see something that makes this workflow a lot simpler.

      TL;DR - Allow me to review individual commits, but comment on the overall pull request.
