Anybody migrate personally or professionally to using jujutsu/jj over git? Thoughts? It's the latest and greatest version control system https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj

Still using CVS...

>hosted on git
is this a joke?

fucking dropped, no wonder the logo is two peckers touching each other

I still use SVN, no need for git or jj.

I still use SVN, works great for me, so I'm not gonna swap to some faggy hipster shit.

i see no point in using something that replicates git. I learned git and it works. Why would I waste time learning same shit as different commands and confuse myself while inevitably having to work with tegular git. Even if whole industry magically adopted it, the migration would take decades and you would have the problem of shuffling both and being annoyed. It won't replace git. If upu want an alternative, write something that actually works differently. As for git, you can just use aliases and source control them.

>Working-copy-as-a-commit: Changes to files are recorded automatically as normal commits, and amended on every subsequent change. This "snapshot" design simplifies the user-facing data model (commits are the only visible object), simplifies internal algorithms, and completely subsumes features like Git's stashes or the index/staging-area.

Sounds like complete garbage. How am I supposed to split changes into multiple discrete commits? The git index is useful. This jj thing does away with it because they're too dumb to understand it I guess.

GIT GIT GIT GIT GOT GOT GOT GOT

>>108611066
My gut reaction is that I hate it. My more considered reaction after reading a bit more about it is that I still hate it. It looks like a bizarre layer on top of git that makes it worse in every way.
I wonder how much of that reaction is reasonable, and how much of that is just my brain starting to fossilise and becoming afraid of new systems and techniques.
>>
>>108611066
So I should drop git which needs 2 dependencies to compile, and replace it with jj which requires 500 dependencies?
>>
many arguments i've read online about what makes it great is that it's supposedly easier to learn than git.
assuming this is true, good for them, but that also means there is no incentive for me to switch besides maybe altruism so I can teach other people version control more easily
>>
It sounds briefly tempting but in a practical context, it just sounds like a pitfall-laden attempt to make Git more usable, since everyone will end up using Git as the backend anyhow. I already have Magit for that.
It doesn't help that the tutorial is ridden with redditspeak.
