Jujutsu Version Control

Core Principles

Use jj command for all git work.
jj primarily operates on revision IDs and revsets.

Help

jj -h shows all commands
Every jj command has a -h flag
jj help -k revsets shows revset language documentation
jj help -k shows all documentation options

Commands

Viewing History

jj show -r <revision_id> # View a commit
jj log -r <revset>       # Commit history matching revset
jj log -n <number>       # Last n commits
jj log -T 'description'  # Commits + full descriptions
jj log -r ..             # All commits (not just mutable ones)

Note: By default, jj log only shows "mutable" commits (not on trunk branch and pushed). Use jj log -r .. to see all commits.

Creating and Updating Commits

jj commit -m "<message>" # Save current commit and start new one on top
jj new -r <revision>     # Create new commit based on a revision
jj desc -m "<message>"   # Update description of current commit

Commit messages

Use short, succinct summary line, then descriptive detail below
Be thorough, but only include information relevant to the changes
Do not be self-congratulatory
Don't mention line numbers (they're in the diff)
Never hard-wrap lines
