Oh I do that quite often, either because I didn’t realise I was committing on the wrong branch, or I decided to split my work in two branches, or i need some other unmerited change for my current branch…

It’s usually a rebase —onto or cherry-pick, I’d say I agree it’s not simple.

jj seems interesting, I’m very comfortable with git but I think its UX is terrible, but everyone use git and it is not an area where I have capacity or willingness to innovate. I’d love to see git being replaced with something better designed though

Nobody else needs to convert to jj for you to use it, so there’s no real downside to switching.

The downside part is "it is not an area where I have capacity or willingness to innovate". I'd happily follow, I don't care enough to lead the innovation.

Yeah, this is the real advantage that jj (and sapling) have compared to how many years I'd been hearing about fossil and seeing it as a non-starter to experiment with.
