Usage

// Each date pair should consist of [earlierDate, laterDate].

$dates = [
    [new DateTime('2019-04-01'), new DateTime('2019-05-01')],
    [new DateTime('2019-05-01'), new DateTime('2019-06-01')],
    [new DateTime('2019-06-01'), new DateTime('2019-07-01')],
    [new DateTime('2019-07-01'), new DateTime('2019-08-01')],
    [new DateTime('2019-08-01'), new DateTime('2019-09-01')],
];

print_r(DateMerger::mergeRanges($dates));
