Is This Book For You?

This book targets two radically different readers.

The Git Wizards, who play with reflog blindfolded and who crave more power. They will find it in Jujutsu.

The Scared Beginners, who freeze at conflicts and dread rebasing. They’ll finally gain autonomy with Jujutsu.

This contradiction stems from Jujutsu’s surprising nature: impossibly simple yet spectacularly powerful. It’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde collaborating amiably in the same lab. A design miracle.

I hope to inspire experts to invent reckless new workflows, and give the frightened ones the joy of versioning on their own, with confidence.

Ultimately, this book, like Jujutsu, isn’t for everyone. It’s for Wizards and Beginners sharing the curiosity and bravery to step outside the box.
