[Jujutsu](https://jj-vcs.github.io/jj/latest/)  <q>is a version control system with a significantly simplified mental model and command-line interface compared to Git, without sacrificing expressibility or power (in fact, you could argue Jujutsu is more powerful). Stacked-diff workflows, seamless rebases, and ephemeral revisions are all natural with `jj`, and it uses Git as a backend, which means you can begin using it non-destructively with a single command and can always drop back down to Git if you need to.</q> -- from [Jujutsu For Busy Devs | maddie.wtf](https://maddie.wtf/posts/2025-07-21-jujutsu-for-busy-devs); Jul 2025.

I'm still investigating (Aug, 2025), and hope to slowly learn why and how. Perhaps [more links to read](https://hn.algolia.com/?q=jujutsu).
