    Newbie jj convert here.

    jj is not patch based, like pijul, but snapshots, like git.

    A sibling commentor points out the change id stored by jj: it is true that at the moment, this isn't really exportable to git in a native way. However, there is a path forward here, and it may come to pass. Until then, systems like Gerrit or Phabricator work better with jj than systems like GitHub.

    However, all is not lost there either: tooling like spr[1] allows you to map between the two universes.

    At my job, at least one person was using jj for six months at work without any of the rest of us being the wiser. Some of the rest of us are trying it out. A really nice thing about jj is that you can use it without anyone else needing to, thanks to the git interop.

    I use spr and git fixup for this workflow and it's really helped me breakup my changes better, managing multiple branches and stacking changes that way is a huge pain, but this workflow has been huge for me!
