I’ve recently switched to jj and it is truly amazing. It too about a week for me to “get it”. The tool is amazing but I think there’s way too much emphasis on what it does/allows rather than what benefits it brings to your workflow. If they get that marketing right I could see it growing. If not, I’ll keep using it
replyWould you be willing to pitch why you like jj and find it useful? How were you using git?
replyI use git mostly on single-dev projects, with branched development patterns.
Would someone like me with a simple git use-case find JJ enjoyable?

replyNah. At the time BitBucket was the better way to do open source projects, and they were Mercurial-first. But eventually they had to add Git support because there was so much demand.
