Switch to Jujutsu already: a tutorial - Stavros' Stuff

I’m "of an age" where I remember version control very well before the days of git. I cut did a lot of early work using Subversion svn and go way back to cvs and SourceSafe. The days before distributed version control sucked by the way. You couldn't code unless you were connected online and they were so, so, so slow. Git was a miracle when Torvald's made it. And notably he made it out of necessity because nothing else could handle the Linux kernel, at least the way he wanted to do it.

Now though we have entered the vast monoculture. Git is everything and everywhere. It is the single tool everyone uses and that has benefit of not having to learn new things. Remember Mercurial hg? No switching costs. But it also limits the view developers have of how code is managed and new, novel approaches are good. We need code diversity to encourage creative new approaches. So Jujutsu is interesting!
