Jujutsu megamerges for fun and profit

Been trying to get into jj lately, but I rely a lot on VS Code's git gutter to review changes as I code. Doesn't look like jj has an equivalent in VS Code. Anyone got tool recommendations?

There are a number of jj plugins for vsc. VisualJJ and Jujutsu Kaizen are probably the two most popular

I just use the VS Code git integration with the jj colocated git repo. HEAD is @- and the changes in @ are considered working copy changes. It works for all I was using the VS Code integration for.

jjk or jjview

I have a PR up for jjk that does the full change as a review changes, and there's another user's PR that allows diffs over arbitrary ranges (i.e. when working out whether the commits that make up a PR are good as a whole rather than individually)

You should be able to use the normal git gutter as long as your repository is colocated.
