jj Jujutsu first impressions

Tutorial and bird’s eye view - Jujutsu docs Git replacement using git under the hood.

First encountered here: Jujutsu for busy devs | Hacker News / Jujutsu For Busy Devs | maddie, wtf?!

For anyone who’s debating whether or not jj is worth learning, I just want to highlight something. Whenever it comes up on Hacker News, there are generally two camps of people: those who haven’t given it a shot yet and those who evangelize it.

Alright, let’s try!

To use on top of an existing git repository:

jj git init --colocate .
jj git clone --colocate git@github.com:maddiemort/maddie-wtf.git

Command line completions: COMPLETE=fish jj | source

Nel mezzo del deserto posso dire tutto quello che voglio.
