jujutsu 0.45.0

hunger | 17 hours ago

Jj releases are really getting boring... Lots of polish and small things that make live easier, but very few things to get excited about.

I love that :-) Shows how far they have come and how stable the thing got in the meantime.

Do you have anything on your wishlist that you would find exciting?

I use jj workspaces extensively, to be able to let various things work on trees in parallel. jj workspaces and Git colocation are not in a great place. The non-default jj workspaces don't get a .git which ~breaks a variety of tools and scenarios, including some around Nix.

I think this is non-trivial and I'm told Caleb is working on it, but it's a pretty decent thorn in my side: https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/issues?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+author%3Acalebdw

I'm not the OP but... hook support is my big dream.

jennings | 8 hours ago

The pre-commit hook isn't a great fit for jj because of Always Be Committing, but we think pre-push solves the same use cases. You can achieve something like that today with jj run:

[aliases]
'push' = ["util", "exec", "--", "bash", "-c", '''
  set -e
  branch="$1"
  jj run -r "trunk()..$branch" -- my-lint-command
  jj git push -b "$branch"
''', "jj-push"]

It's not the most ergonomic thing, but is this approximately what you want to do with hooks?

Something like commit hooks -- not easy with jj's model -- would be great.

But I am actually very happy with jj, and all the polish it gets:-)

Pluggable backends.

Pushing tags would be pretty cool ngl

jj converge

If hope this comes in handy when my branch is rebased in the remote and my local branch was updated.

Converge looks great, but the reason I have divergent commits to converge in the first place is when I forget you can’t use workspaces in parallel. So I’m hoping when the worktree support comes out, I won’t need converge!

a dot release just released hours later https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/releases/tag/v0.45.1

jennings | 7 hours ago

We weren't able to publish the 0.45.0 crates because we had the category "version-control" in Cargo.toml, and apparently that's no longer allowed on crates.io. This was a problem for this release because we created a new jj-core crate.

Rather than publish a different commit than the git tag, we chose to make a 0.45.1.

Would cargo publish --dry-run catch that, or is that done entirely on the remote side after uploading? (I'm unsure offhand if --dry-run includes any communication at all with the registry)
