(Hi Sophie!)

I still stand by my testimonial! My greatest achievement has been convincing Steve Klabnik to try out Jujutsu.

I also saw a comment from JJ's lead author martinvonz, where he pointed out that adding new functionality is much simpler to jj than it is to older systems like Git and Sapling/Mercurial. Having each spent many years working on source control, both Martin and I came to a general belief that a lot of implementation complexity comes from the modal states created by merge conflicts. Because Jujutsu's core UX is more straightforward, this is less of an issue and Jujutsu's devs can prototype changes quicker.
