I guess I never had complex trees from such an action, just a bunch of parallel branches, but I would say splitting and picking commits from different branches is not exactly hard with git either. Also you can also see them in git, but they won't have change ids of course.

I know how to do everything in git that I can do in jj but the thing is I would never bother doing most of these workflows with git because it’s way more of a pain in the ass than with jj. I work with version control in a totally different way now because how easy jj makes it to edit the graph.

Within a day of switching I was fully up to speed with jj and I never see myself going back. I use colocated repos so I can still use git tools in my editor for blaming and viewing file history.

Sure even rebasing a complex tree in git can be done by creating an octopus merge of all leaf nodes and rebasing with preserve merges but like that’s such a pain.
