I consider git the best software ever written. I used to work with some other SVCs, and I cannot thinking on leaving git now. Somehow, I feel it like a limitation for my mind.

I'm following this Jujutsu project, I'm genuinely curious to see what it can bring to the SVC scene.

> I consider git the best software ever written.

How so? I worked with Git all my professional life and I can't deny its efficacy. However, I would not call it un-improvable given all types of corner case issues I have had with it over the years.

“de facto” please.

I'm glad they found a workflow that works for them, but

> but for some reason I cannot proceed on it while eg the CI is running, but I also don’t want to leave the commit and close my code editor etc. It would be simple to just stash everything and later pop the stash, but it still feels disruptive.

I have been using jj as my git client for 2 years now (wow), and I have never considered this to be disruptive. I just immediately switch to a new commit where I want to go, rather than making a new workspace to work in. Maybe it's a difference in the editor that I use (GNU Emacs) that makes this more natural?

Build cache, packages and a few of other things get messed up when switching branches - if you need to do a "quick bug-fix and get back into the main thing" worktrees are really nice.

So how is this different from git worktrees exactly ?
