SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you adopt JJ version control workflows. With JJ, your working copy is a commit, so you can squash, absorb, and stack changes cleanly, while using bookmarks instead of branches to manage multiple ideas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fresh commits before work: Always start with jj new to isolate work.
  • Bookmark-based workflows: Use bookmarks to label and switch between workstreams (e.g., jj bookmark list, jj git push).
  • PR stacking & cleanup: Use jj squash and jj absorb to organize changes for stacked PRs.
  • Push & PR creation: Push changes and connect to PRs with the appropriate commands.

Quick Start

Begin a new task by creating a fresh commit with jj new, make your changes, describe them with jj describe -m "Your note", then start another task with jj new. When ready, push with jj git push.
