I'll be honest, it's been so long at this point since I've used git that it's hard for me to remember the exact details of many of the challenges. I know that I avoided a lot of workflows I wanted to do because of the complexity and mental overhead, and the scenario I described was absolutely one of them. Maintaining a stack of changes that needed to be merged one after another was painful if there were any unexpected hiccups along the way. Now it is painless. Arbitrarily-complicated rebases just happen automatically with jujutsu. Inserting, moving around, and directly editing commits are first-class operations, and descendants automatically rewrite themselves in-place to incorporate changes made to their parents. Rebase conflicts are also first-class citizens so they don't block you and force you to deal with them right now or in any particular order. Having to rebase seven related conflicts one-after-another is no longer a thing, nor is realizing you fucked something up halfway through and having to restart. Coming from git it honestly feels like magic even if it strictly isn't. It genuinely hard to understand how much unnecessary toil git makes you put up with on a day to day basis until you suddenly don't need to deal with it any more.
