Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

Breaking changes

  • jj [op] undo and jj op restore used to take the operation to undo or restore to as an argument to -o/--operation. It is now a positional argument instead (i.e. jj undo -o abc123 is now written jj undo abc123).

  • An alias that is not configured as a string list (e.g. my-status = "status" instead of my-status = ["status"]) is now an error instead of a warning.

New features

  • jj rebase now accepts a --branch/-b <revision> argument, which can be used instead of -r or -s to specify which commits to rebase. It will rebase the whole branch, relative to the destination. The default mode has changed from -r @ to -b @.

  • The new jj print command prints the contents of a file in a revision.

  • (#243) The new jj git remotes list command lists the configured remotes and their URLs.

  • jj move and jj squash now lets you limit the set of changes to move by specifying paths on the command line (in addition to the --interactive mode). For example, use jj move --to @-- foo to move the changes to file (or directory) foo in the working copy to the grandparent commit.

  • jj split now lets you specify on the CLI which paths to include in the first commit. The interactive diff-editing is not started when you do that.

  • Sparse checkouts are now supported. In fact, all working copies are now "sparse", only to different degrees. Use the jj sparse command to manage the paths included in the sparse checkout.

  • The $JJ_CONFIG environment variable can now point to a directory. If it does, all files in the directory will be read, in alphabetical order.

  • You can now override the $EDITOR environment variable by setting the ui.editor config. There is also a new $JJ_EDITOR environment variable, which has even higher priority than the config.

  • You can now use - and + in revset symbols. You used to have to quote branch names like my-feature in nested quotes (outer layer for your shell) like jj co '"my-feature"'. The quoting is no longer needed.

  • The new revset function connected(x) is the same as x:x.

  • The new revset function roots(x) finds commits in the set that are not descendants of other commits in the set.

  • ssh-agent is now detected even if $SSH_AGENT_PID is not set (as long as $SSH_AUTH_SOCK is set). This should help at least macOS users where ssh-agent is launched by default and only $SSH_AUTH_SOCK is set.

  • When importing from a git, any commits that are no longer referenced on the git side will now be abandoned on the jj side as well. That means that jj git fetch will now abandon unreferenced commits and rebase any local changes you had on top.

  • jj git push gained a --change <revision> argument. When that's used, it will create a branch named after the revision's change ID, so you don't have to create a branch yourself.

  • Diff editor command arguments can now be specified by config file. Example:

    [merge-tools.kdiff3]
    program = "kdiff3"
    edit-args = ["--merge", "--cs", "CreateBakFiles=0"]
    
  • jj branch can accept any number of branches to update, rather than just one.

  • Aliases can now call other aliases.

Fixed bugs

  • When rebasing a conflict where one side modified a file and the other side deleted it, we no longer automatically resolve it in favor of the modified content (this was a regression from commit c0ae4b16e8c4).

  • Errors are now printed to stderr (they used to be printed to stdout).

  • Updating the working copy to a commit where a file's executable bit changed but the contents was the same used to lead to a crash. That has now been fixed.

  • If one side of a merge modified a directory and the other side deleted it, it used to be considered a conflict. The same was true if both sides added a directory with different files in. They are now merged as if the missing directory had been empty.

  • When using jj move to move part of a commit into an ancestor, any branches pointing to the source commit used to be left on a hidden intermediate commit. They are now correctly updated.

  • jj untrack now requires at least one path (allowing no arguments was a UX bug).

  • jj rebase now requires at least one destination (allowing no arguments was a UX bug).

  • jj restore --to <rev> now restores from the working copy (it used to restore from the working copy's parent).

  • You now get a proper error message instead of a crash when $EDITOR doesn't exist or exits with an error.

  • Global arguments, such as --at-op=<operation>, can now be passed before an alias.

  • Fixed relative path to the current directory in output to be . instead of empty string.

  • When adding a new workspace, the parent of the current workspace's current checkout will be checked out. That was always the intent, but the root commit was accidentally checked out instead.

[0.4.0] - 2022-04-02

Breaking changes

  • Dropped support for config in ~/.jjconfig. Your configuration is now read from <config dir>/jj/config.toml, where <config dir> is ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME} or ~/.config/ on Linux, ~/Library/Application Support/ on macOS, and ~\AppData\Roaming\ on Windows.

New features

  • You can now set an environment variable called $JJ_CONFIG to a path to a config file. That will then be read instead of your regular config file. This is mostly intended for testing and scripts.

  • The standard $NO_COLOR environment variable is now respected.

  • jj new now lets you specify a description with --message/-m.

  • When you check out a commit, the old commit no longer automatically gets abandoned if it's empty and has descendants, it only gets abandoned if it's empty and does not have descendants.

  • (#111) When undoing an earlier operation, any new commits on top of commits from the undone operation will be rebased away. For example, let's say you rebase commit A so it becomes a new commit A', and then you create commit B on top of A'. If you now undo the rebase operation, commit B will be rebased to be on top of A instead. The same logic is used if the repo was modified by concurrent operations (so if one operation added B on top of A, and one operation rebased A as A', then B would be automatically rebased on top of A'). See #111 for more examples.

  • jj log now accepts -p/--patch option.

Fixed bugs

  • Fixed crash on jj init --git-repo=. (it almost always crashed).

  • When sharing the working copy with a Git repo, the automatic importing and exporting (sometimes?) didn't happen on Windows.

[0.3.3] - 2022-03-16

No changes, only trying to get the automated build to work.

[0.3.2] - 2022-03-16

No changes, only trying to get the automated build to work.

[0.3.1] - 2022-03-13

Fixed bugs

  • (#131) Fixed crash when core.excludesFile pointed to non-existent file, and made leading ~/ in that config expand to $HOME/

[0.3.0] - 2022-03-12

Last release before this changelog started.
