I did check that page, as far as I can tell you still need to run Cargo which I don't want to do because I don't care about Rust.

I'm not complaining for the sake of complaining, I'm saying if they want to play in the Big Boy leagues, they need to do things right.

You do need Cargo to build from source.

If you're on Arch, gentoo, or openSUSE, you can use the package. It is true that Debian has not packaged jj yet.

It'll get there, and it's fine if you'd rather wait until things are more mature.

It's available in Debian sid, although a few versions behind: https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&suite=all&...

You know, I went and searched before I posted. I wonder why it didn’t come up! Thanks.

Thanks! I hope I didn't come off as too dismissive, I'm hearing a lot of good things about Jujutsu. As a developer though, I've never wanted to build from source (probably in the minority on that front).

Nah, you're right that installing a compiler toolchain to build a project is a pain in the butt if you don't already have it. It's a legitimate thing, but it does mean that you won't be adopting more cutting edge tools, which is also just fine! I've done the same with projects built with tools I don't have installed too.
