I apologize for what may come across as a bit of a cop-out answer.

As many of you know, I'm a big fan of jj. The jj project used to have a comparison to Pijul for informational purposes, but the Pijul folks took offense, and so it was removed: https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/commit/0525dc9d860a5fff6a97d134...

As such, I generally just decline to comment on Pijul, as I want to be respectful of them. As the linked commit says, it's not super clear what exactly they do not like, and so I don't want to accidentally cross some line.

In general I wish the project well, seeing a new VCS in Rust is very cool.

Thanks :)

I have not personally considered that, no. I'm a bit skeptical of the idea, as you'd need to understand a lot of different things, and at different versions of those things, in high fidelity. But maybe someone will make it work.

You might already know this, but in case anyone doesn't, but ERSC's CTO is the creator of jj.

Just to be clear about it, what we're doing is not a forge like GitHub, that is, a large single public platform for social coding. What we are doing is providing reliable infrastructure for the enterprise, initially as a BYOC on-premises option, and possibly a single-tennant SaaS. Keep your eyes peeled and/or use that contact form to hear about it when we're ready, we've been talking with some people for a bit but are going to be opening up more soon.

Tangled is doing the social coding thing, and they're jj-native as well. Been a big fan of their work for a while now.

Yep, we've been in stealth for a while! We've only recently started talking more about what we are doing, as we get closer to a general launch.

> if the vibe coding idiots like it,

The organizations that have these problems are general large enterprises, not vibe coders. Large enterprises are more used to talking to people and do not make decisions solely based on the contents of a web page.
