Exactly, me too. Things like `absorb` I'll take, but I don't want jj's opinionated approach to version control. And not only do I not want it for _me_, but I also don't want it for newbies because hiding too much of the underlying design, design issues, etc., seems counterproductive to me.
- baq 1y agoThis does not compute, like at all. jj rebase is half the reason to use it at all. Everything git does with the commit dag, jj does the same at worst, sometimes better. It actually sounds like you're confusing jj with something else.
- steveklabnik 1y agoI’m curious to hear more about what you find opinionated, I think one struggle I’ve had teaching jj to people is that it’s extremely flexible.
- cryptonector 1y agoI'll have to look again. Last I looked at it I felt like jj was a straightjacket.
- steveklabnik 1y agoIt's all good. If you do give it a try and feel like letting me know how it goes, I'm genuinely interested. No worries if not :)
