Git-compatible DVCS that is both simple and powerful
Jujutsu is a Git-compatible DVCS. It combines features from Git (data model,
speed), Mercurial (anonymous branching, simple CLI free from "the index",
revsets, powerful history-rewriting), and Pijul/Darcs (first-class conflicts),
with features not found in most of them (working-copy-as-a-commit, undo
functionality, automatic rebase, safe replication via rsync, Dropbox, or
distributed file system).
The command-line tool is called jj for now because it's easy to type and easy
to replace (rare in English). The project is called "Jujutsu" because it
matches "jj".
Jujutsu is relatively young, with lots of work to still be done. If you have
any questions, or want to talk about future plans, please join us on Discord
Discord or start a GitHub Discussion; the developers monitor both channels.
Important
Jujutsu is an experimental version control system. While Git compatibility is
stable, and most developers use it daily for all their needs, there may still
be work-in-progress features, suboptimal UX, and workflow gaps that make it
unusable for your particular use.
Paths come from the repository package-file index for the observed builds. They describe archive/package associations, not every file that will exist on a running system after maintainer scripts, alternatives, generated state, diversions, or installation choices.
Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.
