> Ah, you use magit! So yeah, like, jj is like magit in the sense that it lets you interact with a git repository in a different way than the standard tool. And that's useful. I never would have used magit because I don't use emacs.

I also use magit and I was confused by the "advantages" that jj has over git. The nice thing about magit is that it doesn't hide git. What it does add is easier typing of the flags (using transient), completions of arguments like branch names (using Emacs), DWIM behavior depending on cursor position and region selection (especially for commit hashes). Also it has nice presentation of the information which acts like hubs for all the above.

I guest jj makes sense if you're using the cli directly. But with magit, every operation is only a few keystrokes. It is to git, what vim is to editing. And I could probably cobble something close with tig or lazygit if I switched from emacs.
