> Just don't ever use `edit`,

> The idiom here is use `edit` if you want to edit a commit

You know, you guys have fun with that, I'll continue using git which (probably) has the same amount of warts, but I already know them. I'll continue to refer new VCS users to jj, seems a lot easier to learn, but really don't have the interest to re-learn a bunch of ever-changing idioms.

I disagree with the people saying "never use edit". There are plenty of people saying conflicting things about git too, and I'd argue that understanding edit versus new isn't anywhere close to the level of wart that having to get people to agree on merging versus rebasing. Like you said though, have fun with that!

No system is perfect, but there's nothing wrong with `jj edit` and `jj new`. Both commands are completely reasonable and do what you think they would do.
