What's This Book About

In your affair with Git, do you recognize yourself in any of these?

• "Detached HEAD" makes you anxious.
• You're not sure of the difference between git reset --soft, --mixed, and --hard.
• You rebase with your fingers crossed. Or you don't dare, too hard.
• You know the reflog exists, but it's an unexplored land.
• When you make a mess, you don't know how to get back.

Or maybe you are on the other side, you've mastered Git and you are intrigued by the extravagant ideas:

• Of working on multiple branches simultaneously.
• Of rebasing interactively in real-time, as you type.
• Of sending changes to past and future commits.

If either Git, deep down, scares you a little, or if you've already hit its ceiling and want to know what comes next, Jujutsu might change your relationship with version control.
