You might like pijul if you like darcs

If it got proper tooling this would be true—but the community will need to build it. Darcs has more out of the box & more existing ecosystems to work with. Pijul is barebones by design, ready to be scripted, there’s just not much out there.

Yeah I've played around with pijul over the years but it's still not at a maturity level that I would like and at this point I'm not sure how the actual work behind patch theory is progressing.
