I looked this up and Pijul is a "distributed version control system" being written in Rust:
https://pijul.org/ https://pijul.org/
- goku12 4y agoThere are some advantages of Pijul over Git - Worries only about patches, not about snapshots too - Only a few commands to learn. No complex switches - Combines many git approaches in one. For example: - pijul record (its commit) is an interactive code selection at the same time. - Merges and rebases are all the same (due to the way commits are linked)
- funnym0nk3y 4y agoThere seems to be some stagnation in pijul. I don't know if that's normal in this kind of project or if it's a indication of the future.
- goku12 4y agoThe author has a habit of taking his work offline for months. Hopefully, that's what's going on now. They are so close to 1.0 with their work. I seriously doubt that project stagnated entirely.
- pmeunier 4y agoI'm one of the main authors. No stagnation, the future is bright but I've been founding a small company recently, not related to Pijul. I've shown an MVP to customers three months ago, now I'm close to 1.0 there. I promise I'll move back to Pijul soon. Another issue is the Nest (our hosting service), I've been working on a new Nest that can benefit from being open source, unlike the current one. Another indication that it's doing alright: I'll give a talk about it at BOB 2023 (bobkonf.de), and an invited talk in April at Collège de France.
- funnym0nk3y 4y agoFirst of all congratulations to shipping the first MVP! And I'm glad to hear that Pijul is very alive! No need to promise anything, I was just wondering. I can't wait until Pijul escapes the nice and grows in popularity.
