First experience with #jj #jujitsu
I tried the equivalent of
git add -p(jj squash -i).- I realize that it’s closer to
git add --interactive(which I find much more complicated and less productive) - I wasn’t able to edit a hunk (like the
ekey ingit add -p) which I use a lot to split debug statements from real work
I generated a conflict (as I expected)
- I found no way to show the original diff
jj undodid not worked (I have not been able to undo thejj squashthat introduced the conflict
Very not impressed so far. Fortunately it was a test repo.

I don't think the builtin diff editor can do this, but you can set a different diff editor than the builtin one: https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/blob/main/docs/config.md#editing-diffs

If you did something afterwards, the operation you undo will no longer be the squash. Look at jj op log to see which one is the correct one to undo.

I just recently gave Jujutsu a go, and I must say, it is a pleasure to work with VCS now. As opposed to Git,
jjjust makes sense and does exactly what I want it to do. No issues whatsoever. And if there is a need (which it is not most of the time), one can just fall back to Git and its ecosystem.

I use magit in Emacs in a similar sort of way. Bringing up the magit status page instantly presents a list of hunks I can browse and stage. When committing, there is also an option to "instant fixup" into an existing commit, which you can select interactively from the commit log.

Has anyone used Jujutsu and Sapling? Which is better?
