This is the kind of example that I find insightful. I know I can do it with git and it's not hard. It's not fun, but it's not hard. So I will disagree with anyone who says that it's impossible with git.

But it is great to know that it is trivial in jj. That's a reason to try :-).

It’s definitely not impossible! It might not even be hard these days (git has accrued a million flags and features), but it is definitely friction. And it might not seem like much, but it adds up. And all of that friction stops you from even considering things that might genuinely be hard.

Everything feeling like it’s a slightly uphill battle isn’t something you always notice until it’s suddenly gone.
