> which is largely what is happening when people reject jj in favour of arcane git incantations

JJ is interesting, though I find some things worse than git (no email workflow, and nothing that does what `git add -p` does. In the article, it shows the limitation of the TUI for `jj split`).

But what I don't get is seemingly all those people who seem to believe that git is rocket science. Yes, JJ seems in a good position to become nicer than git. But git is not hard. I don't get that part at all. So many comments saying "I have been using git for 15 years, yet I don't understand what detached HEAD / stash / git add -p / some not-so-complicated concept means".
