You are confused or wrong, and you are making incorrect assertions about a system "lying" to you on that basis: you can see this for yourself by typing `jj git init` (or just `jj init`) in an empty directory, touching some files, then running `jj status`. You will see a listing of the added files. The same happens if you commit these files, then make some changes to their contents: `jj status` will show the changed files, and `jj diff` will show the diff per file.
