i tinkered around with 'topgit' which basically does patch queues but each patch retains its own history in a shadow branch. it looks like the big corpos have blessed patch queue lifestyle (but now its "stacked commits")
monorepo stuff i'm kind of eh. bitkeeper was right, i think. monorepos are a non-goal and just handling repository nesting in a sane way gets you what you want there. bk nested isn't significantly different from git subrepos, but the tooling actually bothers to check if you are about to shoot yourself in the foot prior to allowing commits and pushes.
i think, really, we just want bitkeeper with some modern polishing and a couple of extensions for the way workflows have turned out.
