How to Merge Your PR in 10 Seconds? Have You Tried Mob Code Review?
summary
Mob code review where the whole team reviews an open PR together so fixes are applied on the spot and the PR can be merged in about 10 seconds. The workflow mixes pair/mob programming, a scribe to note larger refactors, two short daily review slots with a 15–20 minute timekeeper cap (overflow goes to the next slot). Reported benefits are very short branch life, more frequent production releases, faster onboarding and fewer merge conflicts, though scaling beyond ~5 developers causes interruptions and longer sessions that hurt focus.
