Jujutsu (jj) Version Control Software

Getting started

[!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.

Follow the installation instructions to obtain and configure jj. Started off by just downloading the binary and running it from /user/local/bin.

Get started via the tutorial. See the Git comparison, which includes a table of jj vs. git commands.

• The FAQ.
• The Glossary.
• The jj help command (e.g. jj help rebase).
