right, but then I'm using git, not jj, so why jj?

Why do people believe it's going to replace git if it won't do basic things we need. Why is it hard for jj to create a tag?

It’s not. It’s that there’s no inherent advantage to doing it natively when it works just fine via git. There’s more important things to do first, like many of the things on your list.

It’ll get there! Early days.

The advantage is in not requiring multiple tools to do the job when one already does it fine by itself.

jj claims there are these really bad problems with git, which is not my experience. Git is not on my list of pains in dev work
