Yes and no.

Before I started using Jujutsu, I didn't have any pain points with using Git. I didn't understand what all the fuss was about. Git works well! So I totally understand how most Git users have that same reaction when hearing about Jujutsu.

I think the reason I even tried it out in the first place was because Steve Klabnik wrote a tutorial about it. I have a lot of respect for him, because the Rust book is really good. So I though: If Steve thinks it's worth it, I should probably check it out.

Now that I'm used to jj, going back reveals like 100 things that are immediately super annoying when using git. I don't feel like writing it all down TBH. :-) In a general sense, Jujutsu get's out of your way much better than Git. There are a lot of situations where Git blocks you from continuing to work. Have a merge conflict? Stop working, fix it right now. Want to check out another branch? Nu-uh, clean up your dirty worktree first. jj doesn't do that. Have a conflict? I'll record it in the commit, fix it whenever you like. Checking out another branch? No worries, I'll keep your work in progress safe in a commit.
