At a Glance

This book assumes you have a working knowledge of Git. It will help you explore Jujutsu step by step, from the basics to more advanced topics.

Here’s a bird’s-eye view of the path ahead:

  • Why Jujutsu exists and how it differs from Git.
  • The happy path: committing, moving things around, and other everyday moves.
  • Living with conflicts and resolving them.
  • Remote branches and collaborating with others.

The very first, few pages are mostly conceptual and motivational: they help you develop the mental model before you touch the keyboard.
The rest of the book is heavily hands-on, with a very few theoretical interludes to explore the ideas behind the tool.
