    With what you described it sounds like jj is _literally_ exactly what you need, lol Give it a try, but also know that git branches and _topological_ branches are different things

    There's an anti-footgun heuristic that asks "are you sure", basically, if the file about to be tracked is >=1mb, saved a lot of asses a lot of times. But also, if it is such a show…

    It's hilarious that there are people who "don't get what problem jj is trying to solve". It seems like they just use git so little, barely for more that linearly committing, so the…

    While I understand your predicament, consider not giving up on jj just yet because of this. It is _exceedingly_ hard to lose files in jj, it's actually emotionally frustrating read…

    In git terms (this is an analogy that is a bit wrong, but useful here), doing `jj new` after making some changes is the same as doing `git commit -am ""` then. Would you expect `gi…

    Wow, you really just looked at a screenshot, got mad, and then went to write this shallow hate message. > my bane of "modern" CLI applications Ok boomer, I guess you're also a Rust…
