This is exactly how someone explained Git to me 12 years ago or so, and I’ve finally wrapped my head around it. Not changing now.

If I'm understanding the thread correctly, I have a git alias to `git commit --amend --no-edit`, for exactly this workflow. When I'm hacking on something locally and want to just keep amending a commit. I only ever do this if it's HEAD though.

Yes, one way to think about jj in a sort of low-level way is that every jj command does the equivalent of that, every time.

(You can also set up watchman and have that happen on every file change...)
