_Every time I see one of these nifty jj tricks or workarounds I find myself wondering, “why not just use git?”_

How would you do this in stock git?

I might just not be following correctly but committing in git just carries the branch along for the ride, so there's nothing to do in git for this scenario.

IIRC forcing some specific branch name to point to my changes with `jj` was non-obvious and what made me give up and go back to git when I tried it last year.
