Cool. You've convinced me. A small change in workflow + easy cleanup sounds like it addresses most of my concerns. Though if I were to adopt jj I'd still probably just turn off the feature at first until I saw where I could have used it in practice. I'm going to wait and see for a bit myself. I'm pretty comfortable with git.
- emacsen 2y agoThe way jj tracks changes isn't a feature you can turn off AFAIK. Maybe you can, but if you can, you shouldn't. This is fundamental to the jj internals and workflow. As someone who also kept a lot of files in their repo that went untracked, it was a small adjustment. Add to my .gitignore, untrack the files, and done.
- stouset 2y agoYou can disable automatically adding untracked files to the repo, but you can't disable it from automatically incorporating changes to tracked files. I believe GP was talking about the former.
- eikenberry 2y agoYes. It was specifically adding untracked files automatically.
