I see what you mean, and having looked a bit more deeply today, it's clear that jj is very compatible.

However, my point is that having two ways of doing this within a team is already confusing. What if one person writes a "this is how we work" document on the wiki and mentions some git, and the next person rewrites it to jj? It's extra things to think about. It's like supporting developers from a team with both Windows and Linux (Debian, Arch, Ubuntu, etc). Teams do it, and it's all possible, but it was nice that at least everyone used git.



If a team has members who unilaterally rewrite best practice docs to include their preferred technologies, the fault is not with the tech.


I didn't pick a great example and didn't explain it eloquently, but I hope you understand my point. Supporting multiple ways of working takes effort.
