#22Nitpick: "[name-redacted]" and "jujutsu" are already heavily used terms. Googling around for information about this, at least for me, is pretty difficult. [name-redacted] is an international olympic sport, jujutsu is one of the most famous traditional japanese martial arts, jiu jitsu is the most popular submission base for MMA... I'd love a rebrand or rename in order to avoid having to work around the name collision.…
"[name-redacted]" is quite distinct and searchable imo

interesting, would love to read more about the experience of using compose multiplatform for this

#24This looks great though I like TUIs more. I’ve been using https://github.com/idursun/jjui for the last few months, I highly recommend it if you are a TUI person like me.

#25There are a lot of new use cases for VCSes with AI around.

#26It's difficult to go back to a separate VCS app after using IDE git support (specifically VSCode & the 'git graph' extension which is sadly permanently abandoned).
VS Code now has an OKish git graph built-in, in case you didn't know. This feature is a few months old.
Yeah I did but it's merely OKish as you said. Git Graph is still significantly better.

I'm confused -- what would you be going back from, given your preferred VSCode extension is abandoned?
Even though it's abandoned it still works perfectly fine and I still use it.

give "git lens" a try.
Yeah I've used it for a long time but not for its commit graph feature, which still isn't as nice as Git Graph. Actually the main feature I used it for was "Compare working tree with " which gives you a nice "what have I changed overall" view but one where the files are editable still in the diff view.
However I found this better extension for that: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=letmaik....
So I don't really need Git Lens any more, which is good because they've made it all commercial and annoying.

#29not to be that annoying guy, but does anyone have a nix flake for this xD ?

jjui is amazing, sometimes I feel like I shouldn't rely on it so much so I learn the CLI, but it's just so useful!
