## [Unreleased]
### Breaking changes
### Deprecations
### New features
### Fixed bugs
## [0.22.0] - 2024-10-02
### Breaking changes
* Fixing [#4239](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/4239) means the
ordering of some messages have changed.
* Invalid `ui.graph.style` configuration is now an error.
* The builtin template `branch_list` has been renamed to `bookmark_list` as part
of the `jj branch` deprecation.
### Deprecations
* `jj branch` has been deprecated in favor of `jj bookmark`.
**Rationale:** Jujutsu's branches don't behave like Git branches, which a
confused many newcomers, as they expected a similar behavior given the name.
We've renamed them to "bookmarks" to match the actual behavior, as we think
that describes them better, and they also behave similar to Mercurial's
bookmarks.
* `jj obslog` is now called `jj evolution-log`/`jj evolog`. `jj obslog` remains
as an alias.
* `jj unsquash` has been deprecated in favor of `jj squash` and
`jj diffedit --restore-descendants`.
**Rationale:** `jj squash` can be used in interactive mode to pull
changes from one commit to another, including from a parent commit
to a child commit. For fine-grained dependent diffs, such as when
the parent and the child commits must successively modify the same
location in a file, `jj diffedit --restore-descendants` can be used
to set the parent commit to the desired content without altering the
content of the child commit.
* The `git.push-branch-prefix` config has been deprecated in favor of
`git.push-bookmark-prefix`.
* `conflict()` and `file()` revsets have been renamed to `conflicts()` and `files()`
respectively. The old names are still around and will be removed in a future
release.
### New features
* The new config option `snapshot.auto-track` lets you automatically track only
the specified paths (all paths by default). Use the new `jj file track`
command to manually tracks path that were not automatically tracked. There is
no way to list untracked files yet. Use `git status` in a colocated workspace
as a workaround.
[#323](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/323)
* `jj fix` now allows fixing unchanged files with the `--include-unchanged-files` flag. This
can be used to more easily introduce automatic formatting changes in a new
commit separate from other changes.
* `jj workspace add` now accepts a `--sparse-patterns=<MODE>` option, which
allows control of the sparse patterns for a newly created workspace: `copy`
(inherit from parent; default), `full` (full working copy), or `empty` (the
empty working copy).
* New command `jj workspace rename` that can rename the current workspace.
* `jj op log` gained an option to include operation diffs.
* `jj git clone` now accepts a `--remote <REMOTE NAME>` option, which
allows to set a name for the remote instead of using the default
`origin`.
* `jj op undo` now reports information on the operation that has been undone.
* `jj squash`: the `-k` flag can be used as a shorthand for `--keep-emptied`.
* CommitId / ChangeId template types now support `.normal_hex()`.
* `jj commit` and `jj describe` now accept `--author` option allowing to quickly change
author of given commit.
* `jj diffedit`, `jj abandon`, and `jj restore` now accept a `--restore-descendants`
flag. When used, descendants of the edited or deleted commits will keep their original
content.
* `jj git fetch -b <remote-git-branch-name>` will now warn if the branch(es)
can not be found in any of the specified/configured remotes.
* `jj split` now lets the user select all changes in interactive mode. This may be used
to keeping all changes into the first commit while keeping the current commit
description for the second commit (the newly created empty one).
* Author and committer names are now yellow by default.
### Fixed bugs
* Update working copy before reporting changes. This prevents errors during reporting
from leaving the working copy in a stale state.
* Fixed panic when parsing invalid conflict markers of a particular form.
([#2611](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2611))
* Editing a hidden commit now makes it visible.
* The `present()` revset now suppresses missing working copy error. For example,
`present(@)` evaluates to `none()` if the current workspace has no
working-copy commit.

## [0.21.0] - 2024-09-04
### Breaking changes
* `next/prev` will no longer infer when to go into edit mode when moving from
commit to commit. It now either follows the flags `--edit|--no-edit` or it
gets the mode from `ui.movement.edit`.
### Deprecations
* `jj untrack` has been renamed to `jj file untrack`.
### New features
* Add new boolean config knob, `ui.movement.edit` for controlling the behaviour
of `prev/next`. The flag turns `edit` mode `on` and `off` permanently when set
respectively to `true` or `false`.
* All diff formats except `--name-only` now include information about copies and
moves. So do external diff tools in file-by-file mode. `jj status` also
includes information about copies and moves.
* Color-words diff has gained [an option to display complex changes as separate
lines](docs/config.md#color-words-diff-options). It's enabled by default. To
restore the old behavior, set `diff.color-words.max-inline-alternation = -1`.
* A tilde (`~`) at the start of the path will now be expanded to the user's home
directory when configuring a `signing.key` for SSH commit signing.
* When reconfiguring the author, warn that the working copy won't be updated
### Fixed bugs
* Release binaries for Intel Macs have been restored. They were previously
broken due to using a sunset version of GitHub's macOS runners (but nobody had
previously complained.)

## [0.20.0] - 2024-08-07
### Note to packagers
* `jj` now links `libgit2` statically by default. To use dynamic linking, you
need to set the environment variable `LIBGIT2_NO_VENDOR=1` while compiling.
([#4163](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/4163))
### Breaking changes
* `jj rebase --skip-empty` has been renamed to `jj rebase --skip-emptied`
* `jj backout --revision` has been renamed to `jj backout --revisions`.
The short alias `-r` is still supported.
* [The default `immutable_heads()` set](docs/config.md#set-of-immutable-commits)
now includes `untracked_remote_branches()` with the assumption that untracked
branches aren't managed by you. Therefore, untracked branches are no longer
displayed in `jj log` by default.
* Updated defaults for graph node symbol templates `templates.log_node` and
`templates.op_log_node`.
* [The "fileset" language](docs/filesets.md) is now enabled by default. It can
still be disable by setting `ui.allow-filesets=false`.
* On `jj git fetch`/`import`, commits referred to by `HEAD@git` are no longer
preserved. If a checked-out named branch gets deleted locally or remotely, the
corresponding commits will be abandoned.
* `jj --at-op=@` no longer merges concurrent operations if explicitly specified.
* `jj obslog -p` no longer shows diffs at non-partial squash operations.
Previously, it showed the same diffs as the second predecessor.
### Deprecations
* The original configuration syntax for `jj fix` is now deprecated in favor of
one that allows defining multiple tools that can affect different filesets.
These can be used in combination for now. See `jj help fix` for details.
### New features
* Define `immutable_heads()` revset alias in terms of a new `builtin_immutable_heads()`.
This enables users to redefine `immutable_heads()` as they wish, but still
have `builtin_immutable_heads()` which should not be redefined.
* External diff tools can now be configured to invoke the tool on each file
individually instead of being passed a directory by setting
`merge-tools.$TOOL.diff-invocation-mode="file-by-file"` in config.toml.
* In git diffs, word-level hunks are now highlighted with underline. See [diff
colors and styles](docs/config.md#diff-colors-and-styles) for customization.
* New `.diff().<format>()` commit template methods are added. They can be used
in order to show diffs conditionally. For example,
`if(current_working_copy, diff.summary())`.
* `jj git clone` and `jj git init` with an existing git repository adds the
default branch of the remote as repository settings for
`revset-aliases."trunk()"`.`
* `jj workspace forget` now abandons the workspace's working-copy commit if it
was empty.
* `jj backout` now includes the backed out commit's subject in the new commit
message.
* `jj backout` can now back out multiple commits at once.
* `jj git clone some/nested/path` now creates the full directory tree for
nested destination paths if they don't exist.
* String patterns now support caseinsensitive matching by suffixing any
pattern kind with `-i`. `mine()` uses caseinsensitive matching on your email
address unconditionally. Only ASCII case folding is currently implemented,
but this will likely change in the future.
* String patterns now support `regex:"pattern"`.
* New `tracked_remote_branches()` and `untracked_remote_branches()` revset
functions can be used to select tracked/untracked remote branches.
* The `file()` revset function now accepts fileset as argument.
* New `diff_contains()` revset function can be used to search diffs.
* New command `jj operation diff` that can compare changes made between two
operations.
* New command `jj operation show` that can show the changes made in a single
operation.
* New config setting `git.private-commits` to prevent commits from being pushed.
* [The default commit description template](docs/config.md#default-description)
can now be configured by `templates.draft_commit_description`.
* `jj fix` can now be configured to run different tools on different filesets.
This simplifies the use case of configuring code formatters for specific file
types. See `jj help fix` for details.
* Added revset functions `author_date` and `committer_date`.
* `jj describe` can now update the description of multiple commits.
### Fixed bugs
* `jj status` will show different messages in a conflicted tree, depending
on the state of the working commit. In particular, if a child commit fixes
a conflict in the parent, this will be reflected in the hint provided
by `jj status`
* `jj diff --git` no longer shows the contents of binary files.
* Windows binaries no longer require `vcruntime140.dll` to be installed
(normally through Visual Studio.)
* On quit, the builtin pager no longer waits for all outputs to be discarded.
* `jj branch rename` no longer shows a warning in colocated repos.

## [0.19.0] - 2024-07-03
### Breaking changes
* In revset aliases, top-level `kind:pattern` expression is now parsed as
modifier. Surround with parentheses if it should be parsed as string/file
pattern.
* Dropped support for automatic upgrade of repo formats used by versions before
0.12.0.
* `jj fix` now defaults to the broader revset `-s reachable(@, mutable())`
instead of `-s @`.
* Dropped support for deprecated `jj branch delete`/`forget` `--glob` option.
* `jj branch set` now creates new branch if it doesn't exist. Use `jj branch
move` to ensure that the target branch already exists.
[#3584](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/3584)
### Deprecations
* Replacing `-l` shorthand for `--limit` with `-n` in `jj log`, `jj op log`
and `jj obslog`.
* `jj split --siblings` is deprecated in favor of `jj split --parallel` (to
match `jj parallelize`).
* A new `jj file` subcommand now replaces several existing uncategorized
commands, which are deprecated.
- `jj file show` replaces `jj cat`.
- `jj file chmod` replaces `jj chmod`.
- `jj file list` replaces `jj files`.
### New features
* Support background filesystem monitoring via watchman triggers enabled with
the `core.watchman.register_snapshot_trigger = true` config.
* Show paths to config files when configuration errors occur.
* `jj fix` now supports configuring the default revset for `-s` using the
`revsets.fix` config.
* The `descendants()` revset function now accepts an optional `depth` argument;
like the `ancestors()` depth argument, it limits the depth of the set.
* Revset/template aliases now support function overloading.
[#2966](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2966)
* Conflicted files are individually simplified before being materialized.
* The `jj file` subcommand now contains several existing file utilities.
- `jj file show`, replacing `jj cat`.
- `jj file chmod` replacing `jj chmod`.
- `jj file list` replacing `jj files`.
* New command `jj branch move` let you update branches by name pattern or source
revision.
* New diff option `jj diff --name-only` allows for easier shell scripting.
* In color-words diffs, hunks are now highlighted with underline. See [diff
colors and styles](docs/config.md#diff-colors-and-styles) for customization.
* `jj git push -c <arg>` can now accept revsets that resolve to multiple
revisions. This means that `jj git push -c xyz -c abc` is now equivalent to
`jj git push -c 'all:(xyz | abc)'`.
* `jj prev` and `jj next` have gained a `--conflict` flag which moves you
to the next conflict in a child commit.
* New command `jj git remote set-url` that sets the url of a git remote.
* Author timestamp is now reset when rewriting discardable commits (empty
commits with no description) if authored by the current user.
[#2000](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2000)
* `jj commit` now accepts `--reset-author` option to match `jj describe`.
* `jj squash` now accepts a `--keep-emptied` option to keep the source commit.
### Fixed bugs
* `jj git push` now ignores immutable commits when checking whether a
to-be-pushed commit has conflicts, or has no description / committer / author
set. [#3029](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/3029)
* `jj` will look for divergent changes outside the short prefix set even if it
finds the change id inside the short prefix set.

## [0.18.0] - 2024-06-05
### Breaking changes
* Dropped support for `ui.default-revset` config (replaced by `revsets.log` in
0.8.0).
* The `commit_summary_no_branches` template is superseded by
`templates.branch_list`.
* `jj split` will now refuse to split an empty commit.
* `jj config list` now uses multi-line strings and single-quoted strings in the
output when appropriate.
* `jj config get`/`list`/`set` now parse `name` argument as [TOML
key](https://toml.io/en/v1.0.0#keys). Quote meta characters as needed.
Example: `jj config get "revset-aliases.'trunk()'"`
* When updating the working copy away from an empty and undescribed commit, it
is now abandoned even if it is a merge commit.
* If a new working-copy commit is created because the old one was abandoned, and
the old commit was merge, then the new commit will now also be.
[#2859](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2859)
* `jj new`'s `--insert-before`/`--insert-after` options must now be set for each
commit the new commit will be inserted before/after. Previously, those options
were global flags and specifying them once would insert the new commit before/
after all the specified commits.
### Deprecations
* Attempting to alias a built-in command now gives a warning, rather than being
silently ignored.
### New features
* `jj branch list`/`tag list` now accept `-T`/`--template` option. The tag list
prints commit summary along with the tag name by default.
* Conflict markers now include an explanation of what each part of the conflict
represents.
* `ui.color = "debug"` prints active labels alongside the regular colored
output.
* `jj branch track` now show conflicts if there are some.
* A new revset `reachable(srcs, domain)` will return all commits that are
reachable from `srcs` within `domain`.
* There are now prebuilt binaries for `aarch64-linux-unknown-musl`.
Note, these are cross compiled and currently untested.
We plan on providing fully tested builds later once our CI system allows it.
* Added new revsets `mutable()` and `immutable()`.
* Upgraded `scm-record` from v0.2.0 to v0.3.0. See release notes at
<https://github.com/arxanas/scm-record/releases/tag/v0.3.0>
* New command `jj fix` that can be configured to update commits by running code
formatters (or similar tools) on changed files. The configuration schema and
flags are minimal for now, with a number of improvements planned (for example,
[#3800](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/3800) and
[#3801](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/3801)).
* `jj new`'s `--insert-before` and `--insert-after` options can now be used
simultaneously.
* `jj git push` now can push commits with empty descriptions with the
`--allow-empty-description` flag
### Fixed bugs
* Previously, `jj git push` only made sure that the branch is in the expected
location on the remote server when pushing a branch forward (as opposed to
sideways or backwards). Now, `jj git push` makes a safety check in all cases
and fails whenever `jj git fetch` would have introduced a conflict.
In other words, previously branches that moved sideways or backward were
pushed similarly to Git's `git push --force`; now they have protections
similar to `git push --force-with-lease` (though not identical to it, to match
the behavior of `jj git fetch`). Note also that because of the way `jj git
fetch` works, `jj` does not suffer from the same problems as Git's `git push
--force-with-lease` in situations when `git fetch` is run in the background.
* When the working copy commit becomes immutable, a new one is automatically
created
on top of it to avoid letting the user edit the immutable one.
* `jj config list` now properly escapes TOML keys (#1322).
* Files with conflicts are now checked out as executable if all sides of the
conflict are executable.
* The progress bar (visible when using e.g. `jj git clone`) clears the
remainder of the cursor row after drawing rather than clearing the entire row
before drawing, eliminating the "flicker" effect seen on some terminals.

## [0.17.1] - 2024-05-07
### Fixed bugs
* `jj status` no longer scans through the entire history to look for ancestors
with conflicts.
## [0.17.0] - 2024-05-01
### Breaking changes
* The default template aliases were replaced as follows:
* `builtin_op_log_root(op_id: OperationId)` ->
`format_root_operation(root: Operation)`
* `builtin_log_root(change_id: ChangeId, commit_id: CommitId)` ->
`format_root_commit(root: Commit)`
* `builtin_change_id_with_hidden_and_divergent_info` ->
`format_short_change_id_with_hidden_and_divergent_info(commit: Commit)`
* The `--revision` option of `jj rebase` is renamed to `--revisions`. The short
alias `-r` is still supported.
### New features
* The list of conflicted paths is printed whenever the working copy changes.
This can be disabled with the `--quiet` option.
* Commit objects in templates now have a `mine() -> Boolean` method analog to
the same function in revsets. It evaluates to true if the email of the commit
author matches the current `user.email`.
* Commit objects in templates now have a `contained_in(revset: String) ->
Boolean` method.
* Operation objects in templates now have a `snapshot() -> Boolean` method that
evaluates to true if the operation was a snapshot created by a non-mutating
command (e.g. `jj log`).
* Revsets and templates now support single-quoted raw string literals.
* A new config option `ui.always-allow-large-revsets` has been added to
allow large revsets expressions in some commands, without the `all:` prefix.
* A new config option `ui.allow-filesets` has been added to enable ["fileset"
expressions](docs/filesets.md). Note that filesets are currently experimental,
but will be enabled by default in a future release.
* A new global flag `--ignore-immutable` lets you rewrite immutable commits.
* New command `jj parallelize` that rebases a set of revisions into siblings.
* `jj status` now supports filtering by paths. For example, `jj status .` will
only list changed files that are descendants of the current directory.
* `jj prev` and `jj next` now work when the working copy revision is a merge.
* `jj squash` now accepts a `--use-destination-message/-u` option that uses the
description of the destination for the new squashed revision and discards the
descriptions of the source revisions.
* You can check whether Watchman fsmonitor is enabled or installed with the new
`jj debug watchman status` command.
* `jj rebase` now accepts revsets resolving to multiple revisions with the
`--revisions`/`-r` option.
* `jj rebase -r` now accepts `--insert-after` and `--insert-before` options to
customize the location of the rebased revisions.
### Fixed bugs
* Revsets now support `\`-escapes in string literal.
* The builtin diff editor now allows empty files to be selected during
`jj split`.
* Fixed a bug with `jj split` introduced in 0.16.0 that caused it to incorrectly
rebase the children of the revision being split if they had other parents
(i.e. if the child was a merge).
* The `snapshot.max-new-file-size` option can now handle raw integer literals,
interpreted as a number of bytes, where previously it could only handle string
literals. This means that `snapshot.max-new-file-size="1"` and
`snapshot.max-new-file-size=1` are now equivalent.
* `jj squash <path>` is now a no-op if the path argument didn't match any paths
(it used to create new commits with bumped timestamp).

## [0.16.0] - 2024-04-03
### Deprecations
* `jj move` was deprecated in favor of `jj squash`.
### Breaking changes
* The `git_head` template keyword now returns an optional value instead of a
list of 0 or 1 element.
* The `jj sparse set --edit`/`--reset` flags were split up into `jj sparse
edit`/`reset` subcommands respectively.
* The `jj sparse` subcommands now parse and print patterns as workspace-relative
paths.
* The `jj log` command no longer uses the default revset when a path is
specified.
### New features
* Config now supports rgb hex colors (in the form `#rrggbb`) wherever existing
color names are supported.
* `ui.default-command` now accepts multiple string arguments, for more complex
default `jj` commands.
* Graph node symbols are now configurable via templates
* `templates.log_node`
* `templates.op_log_node`
* `jj log` now includes synthetic nodes in the graph where some revisions were
elided.
* `jj squash` now accepts `--from` and `--into` (also aliased as `--to`) if `-r`
is not specified. It can now be used for all use cases where `jj move` could
previously be used. The `--from` argument accepts a revset that resolves to
more than one revision.
* Commit templates now support `immutable` keyword.
* New template function `coalesce(content, ..)` is added.
* Timestamps are now shown in local timezone and without milliseconds and
timezone offset by default.
* `jj git push` now prints messages from the remote.
* `jj branch list` now supports a `--conflicted/-c` option to show only
conflicted branches.
* `jj duplicate` and `jj abandon` can now take more than a single `-r` argument,
for consistency with other commands.
* `jj branch list` now allows combining `-r REVISIONS`/`NAMES` and `-a` options.
* `--all` is now named `--all-remotes` for `jj branch list`
* There is a new global `--quiet` flag to silence commands' non-primary output.
* `jj split` now supports a `--siblings/-s` option that splits the target
revision into siblings with the same parents and children.
* New function `working_copies()` for revsets to show the working copy commits
of all workspaces.

## [0.15.1] - 2024-03-06
No code changes (fixing Rust `Cargo.toml` stuff).
## [0.15.0] - 2024-03-06
### Breaking changes
* The minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) is now 1.76.0.
* The on-disk index format changed. New index files will be created
automatically, but it can fail if the repository is co-located and predates
Git GC issues [#815](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/815). If
reindexing failed, you'll need to clean up corrupted operation history by
`jj op abandon ..<bad operation ID>`.
* Dropped support for the "legacy" graph-drawing style. Use "ascii" for a very
similar result.
* The default log output no longer lists all tagged heads. Set `revsets.log =
"@ | ancestors(immutable_heads().., 2) | heads(immutable_heads())"` to restore
the old behavior.
* Dropped support for the deprecated `:` revset operator. Use `::` instead.
* `jj rebase --skip-empty` no longer abandons commits that were already empty
before the rebase.
### New features
* Partial support for commit signing. Currently you can configure jj to "keep"
commit signatures by making new ones for rewritten commits, and to sign new
commits when they are created.
This comes with out-of-the-box support for the following backends:
* GnuPG
* SSH
Signature verification and an explicit sign command will hopefully come soon.
* Templates now support logical operators: `||`, `&&`, `!`
* Templates now support the `self` keyword, which is the current commit in `jj
log`/`obslog` templates.
* `jj show` now accepts `-T`/`--template` option to render its output using
template
* `jj config list` now accepts `-T`/`--template` option.
* `jj git fetch` now accepts `-b` as a shorthand for `--branch`, making it more
consistent with other commands that accept a branch
* In the templating language, Timestamps now have a `.local()` method for
converting to the local timezone.
* `jj next/prev` now infer `--edit` when you're already editing a non-head
commit (a commit with children).
* A new built-in pager named `:builtin` is available on all platforms,
implemented with [minus](https://github.com/arijit79/minus/)
* Set config `ui.log-synthetic-elided-nodes = true` to make `jj log` include
synthetic nodes in the graph where some revisions were elided
([#1252](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1252),
[#2971](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2971)). This may become the
default depending on feedback.
* When creating a new workspace, the sparse patterns are now copied over from
the current workspace.
* `jj git init --colocate` can now import an existing Git repository. This is
equivalent to `jj git init --git-repo=.`.
* `jj git fetch` now automatically prints new remote branches and tags by
default.
* `--verbose/-v` is now `--debug` (no short option since it's not intended to be
used often)
* `jj move --from/--to` can now be abbreviated to `jj move -f/-t`
* `jj commit`/`diffedit`/`move`/`resolve`/`split`/`squash`/`unsquash` now accept
`--tool=<NAME>` option to override the default.
[#2575](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2575)
* Added completions for [Nushell](https://nushell.sh) to `jj util completion`
* `jj branch list` now supports a `--tracked/-t` option which can be used to
show tracked branches only. Omits local Git-tracking branches by default.
* Commands producing diffs now accept a `--context` flag for the number of
lines of context to show.
* `jj` commands with the `-T`/`--template` option now provide a hint containing
defined template names when no argument is given, assisting the user in making
a selection.
### Fixed bugs
* On Windows, symlinks in the repo are now supported when Developer Mode is
enabled.
When symlink support is unavailable, they will be materialized as regular
files in the
working copy (instead of resulting in a crash).
[#2](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2)
* On Windows, the `:builtin` pager is now used by default, rather than being
disabled entirely.
* Auto-rebase now preserves the shape of history even for merge commits where
one parent is an ancestor of another.

## [0.14.0] - 2024-02-07
### Deprecations
* `jj checkout` and `jj merge` are both deprecated; use `jj new` instead to
replace both of these commands in all instances.
**Rationale**: `jj checkout` and `jj merge` both implement identical
functionality, which is a subset of `jj new`. `checkout` creates a new working
copy commit on top of a single specified revision, i.e. with one parent.
`merge` creates a new working copy commit on top of *at least* two specified
revisions, i.e. with two or more parents.
The only difference between these commands and `jj new`, which *also* creates
a new working copy commit, is that `new` can create a working copy commit on
top of any arbitrary number of revisions, so it can handle both the previous
cases at once. The only actual difference between these three commands is the
command syntax and their name. These names were chosen to be familiar to users
of other version control systems, but we instead encourage all users to adopt
`jj new` instead; it is more general and easier to remember than both of
these.
`jj checkout` and `jj merge` will no longer be shown as part of `jj help`, but
will still function for now, emitting a warning about their deprecation.
**Deadline**: `jj checkout` and `jj merge` will be deleted and are expected
become a **hard error later in 2024**.
* `jj init --git` and `jj init --git-repo` are now deprecated and will be
removed
in the near future.
Use `jj git init` instead.
### Breaking changes
* (Minor) Diff summaries (e.g. `jj diff -s`) now use `D` for "Deleted" instead
of `R` for "Removed". @joyously pointed out that `R` could also mean
"Renamed".
* `jj util completion` now takes the shell as a positional argument, not a flag.
the previous behavior is deprecated, but supported for now. it will be removed
in the future.
* `jj rebase` now preserves the shape of history even for merge commits where
one parent is an ancestor of another. You can follow the `jj rebase` by
`jj rebase -s <merge commit> -d <single parent>` if you want to linearize the
history.
### New features
* `jj util completion` now supports powershell and elvish.
* Official binaries for macOS running on Apple Silicon (`aarch64-apple-darwin`)
are now available, alongside the existing macOS x86 binaries.
* New `jj op abandon` command is added to clean up the operation history. Git
refs and commit objects can be further compacted by `jj util gc`.
* `jj util gc` now removes unreachable operation, view, and Git objects.
* `jj branch rename` will now warn if the renamed branch has a remote branch,
since
those will have to be manually renamed outside of `jj`.
* `jj git push` gained a `--tracked` option, to push all the tracked branches.
* There's now a virtual root operation, similar to the [virtual root
commit](docs/glossary.md#root-commit). It appears at the end of `jj op log`.
* `jj config list` gained a `--include-overridden` option to allow
printing overridden config values.
* `jj config list` now accepts `--user` or `--repo` option to specify
config origin.
* New `jj config path` command to print the config file path without launching
an editor.
* `jj tag list` command prints imported git tags.
* `jj next` and `jj prev` now prompt in the event of the next/previous commit
being ambiguous, instead of failing outright.
* `jj resolve` now displays the file being resolved.
* `jj workspace root` was aliased to `jj root`, for ease of discoverability
* `jj diff` no longer shows the contents of binary files.
* `jj git` now has an `init` command that initializes a git backed repo.
* New template function `surround(prefix, suffix, content)` is added.
### Fixed bugs
* Fixed snapshots of symlinks in `gitignore`-d directory.
[#2878](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2878)
* Fixed data loss in dirty working copy when checked-out branch is rebased or
abandoned by Git.

## [0.13.0] - 2024-01-03
### Breaking changes
* `jj git fetch` no longer imports new remote branches as local branches. Set
`git.auto-local-branch = true` to restore the old behavior.
### New features
* Information about new and resolved conflicts is now printed by every command.
* `jj branch` has gained a new `rename` subcommand that allows changing a branch
name atomically. `jj branch help rename` for details.
### Fixed bugs
* Command aliases can now be loaded from repository config relative to the
current working directory.

## [0.12.0] - 2023-12-05
### Breaking changes
* The `remote_branches()` revset no longer includes branches exported to the Git
repository (so called Git-tracking branches.)
* `jj branch set` no longer creates a new branch. Use `jj branch create`
instead.
* `jj init --git` in an existing Git repository now errors and exits rather than
creating a second Git store.
### New features
* `jj workspace add` can now take _multiple_ `--revision` arguments, which will
create a new workspace with its working-copy commit on top of all the parents,
as if you had run `jj new r1 r2 r3 ...`.
* You can now set `git.abandon-unreachable-commits = false` to disable the
usual behavior where commits that became unreachable in the Git repo are
abandoned ([#2504](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2504)).
* `jj new` gained a `--no-edit` option to prevent editing the newly created
commit. For example, `jj new a b --no-edit -m Merge` creates a merge commit
without affecting the working copy.
* `jj rebase` now takes the flag `--skip-empty`, which doesn't copy over commits
that would become empty after a rebase.
* There is a new `jj util gc` command for cleaning up the repository storage.
For now, it simply runs `git gc` on the backing Git repo (when using the Git
backend).
### Fixed bugs
* Fixed another file conflict resolution issue where `jj status` would disagree
with the actual file content.

## [0.11.0] - 2023-11-01
### Breaking changes
* Conflicts are now stored in a different way. Commits written by a new `jj`
binary will not be read correctly by older `jj` binaries. The new model
solves some performance problems with the old model. For example, `jj log`
should be noticeably faster on large repos. You may need to create a new
clone to see the full speedup.
* The `remote_branches()` revset now includes branches exported to the Git
repository (so called Git-tracking branches.) *This change will be reverted
in 0.12.0.*
* Status messages are now printed to stderr.
* `jj config set` now interprets the value as TOML also if it's a valid TOML
array or table. For example, `jj config set --user 'aliases.n' '["new"]'`
* Remote branches now have tracking or non-tracking flags. The
`git.auto-local-branch` setting is applied only to newly fetched remote
branches. Existing remote branches are migrated as follows:
* If local branch exists, the corresponding remote branches are considered
tracking branches.
* Otherwise, the remote branches are non-tracking branches.
If the deduced tracking flags are wrong, use `jj branch track`/`untrack`
commands to fix them up.
See [automatic local branch creation](docs/config.md#automatic-local-branch-creation)
for details.
* Non-tracking remote branches aren't listed by default. Use `jj branch list
--all` to show all local and remote branches.
* It's not allowed to push branches if non-tracking remote branches of the same
name exist.
* Pushing deleted/moved branches no longer abandons the local commits referenced
by the remote branches.
* `jj git fetch --branch` now requires `glob:` prefix to expand `*` in branch
name.
### New features
* `jj`'s stable release can now be installed
with [`cargo binstall jj-cli`](https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall).
* `jj workspace add` now takes a `--revision` argument.
* `jj workspace forget` can now forget multiple workspaces at once.
* `branches()`/`remote_branches()`/`author()`/`committer()`/`description()`
revsets now support glob matching.
* `jj branch delete`/`forget`/`list`, and `jj git push --branch` now support
[string pattern syntax](docs/revsets.md#string-patterns). The `--glob` option
is deprecated in favor of `glob:` pattern.
* The `branches`/`tags`/`git_refs`/`git_head` template keywords now return a
list of `RefName`s. They were previously pre-formatted strings.
* The new template keywords `local_branches`/`remote_branches` are added to show
only local/remote branches.
* `jj workspace add` now preserves all parents of the old working-copy commit
instead of just the first one.
* `jj rebase -r` gained the ability to rebase a revision `A` onto a descendant
of `A`.
### Fixed bugs
* Updating the working copy to a commit where a file that's currently ignored
in the working copy no longer leads to a crash
([#976](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/976)).
* Conflicts in executable files can now be resolved just like conflicts in
non-executable files ([#1279](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1279)).
* `jj new --insert-before` and `--insert-after` now respect immutable revisions
([#2468](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2468)).

## [0.10.0] - 2023-10-04
### Breaking changes
* A default revset-alias function `trunk()` now exists. If you previously
defined
your own `trunk()` alias it will continue to overwrite the built-in one.
Check [revsets.toml](cli/src/config/revsets.toml)
and [revsets.md](docs/revsets.md)
to understand how the function can be adapted.
### New features
* The `ancestors()` revset function now takes an optional `depth` argument
to limit the depth of the ancestor set. For example, use `jj log -r
'ancestors(@, 5)` to view the last 5 commits.
* Support for the Watchman filesystem monitor is now bundled by default. Set
`core.fsmonitor = "watchman"` in your repo to enable.
* You can now configure the set of immutable commits via
`revset-aliases.immutable_heads()`. For example, set it to
`"remote_branches() | tags()"` to prevent rewriting those those. Their
ancestors are implicitly also immutable.
* `jj op log` now supports `--no-graph`.
* Templates now support an additional escape: `\0`. This will output a literal
null byte. This may be useful for e.g.
`jj log -T 'description ++ "\0"' --no-graph` to output descriptions only, but
be able to tell where the boundaries are
* jj now bundles a TUI tool to use as the default diff and merge editors. (The
previous default was `meld`.)
* `jj split` supports the `--interactive` flag. (This is already the default if
no paths are provided.)
* `jj commit` accepts an optional list of paths indicating a subset of files to
include in the first commit
* `jj commit` accepts the `--interactive` flag.

## [0.9.0] - 2023-09-06
### Breaking changes
* The minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) is now 1.71.0.
* The storage format of branches, tags, and git refs has changed. Newly-stored
repository data will no longer be loadable by older binaries.
* The `:` revset operator is deprecated. Use `::` instead. We plan to delete the
`:` form in jj 0.15+.
* The `--allow-large-revsets` flag for `jj rebase` and `jj new` was replaced by
a `all:` before the revset. For example, use `jj rebase -d 'all:foo-'`
instead of `jj rebase --allow-large-revsets -d 'foo-'`.
* The `--allow-large-revsets` flag for `jj rebase` and `jj new` can no longer be
used for allowing duplicate destinations. Include the potential duplicates
in a single expression instead (e.g. `jj new 'all:x|y'`).
* The `push.branch-prefix` option was renamed to `git.push-branch-prefix`.
* The default editor on Windows is now `Notepad` instead of `pico`.
* `jj` will fail attempts to snapshot new files larger than 1MiB by default.
This behavior
can be customized with the `snapshot.max-new-file-size` config option.
* Author and committer signatures now use empty strings to represent unset
names and email addresses. The `author`/`committer` template keywords and
methods also return empty strings.
Older binaries may not warn user when attempting to `git push` commits
with such signatures.
* In revsets, the working-copy or remote symbols (such as `@`, `workspace_id@`,
and `branch@remote`) can no longer be quoted as a unit. If a workspace or
branch name contains whitespace, quote the name like `"branch name"@remote`.
Also, these symbols will not be resolved as revset aliases or function
parameters. For example, `author(foo@)` is now an error, and the revset alias
`'revset-aliases.foo@' = '@'` will be failed to parse.
* The `root` revset symbol has been converted to function `root()`.
* The `..x` revset is now evaluated to `root()..x`, which means the root commit
is no longer included.
* `jj git push` will now push all branches in the range `remote_branches()..@`
instead of only branches pointing to `@` or `@-`.
* It's no longer allowed to create a Git remote named "git". Use `jj git remote
rename` to rename the existing remote.
[#1690](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1690)
* Revset expression like `origin/main` will no longer resolve to a
remote-tracking branch. Use `main@origin` instead.
### New features
* Default template for `jj log` now does not show irrelevant information
(timestamp, empty, message placeholder etc.) about the root commit.
* Commit templates now support the `root` keyword, which is `true` for the root
commit and `false` for every other commit.
* `jj init --git-repo` now works with bare repositories.
* `jj config edit --user` and `jj config set --user` will now pick a default
config location if no existing file is found, potentially creating parent
directories.
* `jj log` output is now topologically grouped.
[#242](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/242)
* `jj git clone` now supports the `--colocate` flag to create the git repo
in the same directory as the jj repo.
* `jj restore` gained a new option `--changes-in` to restore files
from a merge revision's parents. This undoes the changes that `jj diff -r`
would show.
* `jj diff`/`log` now supports `--tool <name>` option to generate diffs by
external program. For configuration, see [the documentation](docs/config.md).
[#1886](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1886)
* A new experimental diff editor `meld-3` is introduced that sets up Meld to
allow you to see both sides of the original diff while editing. This can be
used with `jj split`, `jj move -i`, etc.
* `jj log`/`obslog`/`op log` now supports `--limit N` option to show the first
`N` entries.
* Added the `ui.paginate` option to enable/disable pager usage in commands
* `jj checkout`/`jj describe`/`jj commit`/`jj new`/`jj squash` can take repeated
`-m/--message` arguments. Each passed message will be combined into paragraphs
(separated by a blank line)
* It is now possible to set a default description using the new
`ui.default-description` option, to use when describing changes with an empty
description.
* `jj split` will now leave the description empty on the second part if the
description was empty on the input commit.
* `branches()`/`remote_branches()`/`author()`/`committer()`/`description()`
revsets now support exact matching. For example, `branch(exact:main)`
selects the branch named "main", but not "maint". `description(exact:"")`
selects commits whose description is empty.
* Revsets gained a new function `mine()` that
aliases `author(exact:"your_email")`.
* Added support for `::` and `..` revset operators with both left and right
operands omitted. These expressions are equivalent to `all()` and `~root()`
respectively.
* `jj log` timestamp format now accepts `.utc()` to convert a timestamp to UTC.
* templates now support additional string
methods `.starts_with(x)`, `.ends_with(x)`
`.remove_prefix(x)`, `.remove_suffix(x)`, and `.substr(start, end)`.
* `jj next` and `jj prev` are added, these allow you to traverse the history
in a linear style. For people coming from Sapling and `git-branchles`
see [#2126](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2126) for
further pending improvements.
* `jj diff --stat` has been implemented. It shows a histogram of the changes,
same as `git diff --stat`.
Fixes [#2066](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2066)
* `jj git fetch --all-remotes` has been implemented. It fetches all remotes
instead of just the default remote
### Fixed bugs
* Fix issues related to .gitignore handling of untracked directories
[#2051](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2051).
* `jj config set --user` and `jj config edit --user` can now be used outside of
any repository.
* SSH authentication could hang when ssh-agent couldn't be reached
[#1970](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1970)
* SSH authentication can now use ed25519 and ed25519-sk keys. They still need
to be password-less.
* Git repository managed by the repo tool can now be detected as a "colocated"
repository.

## [0.8.0] - 2023-07-09
### Breaking changes
* The `jujutsu` and `jujutsu-lib` crates were renamed to `jj-cli` and `jj-lib`,
respectively.
* The `ui.oplog-relative-timestamps` option has been removed. Use the
`format_time_range()` template alias instead. For details, see
[the documentation](docs/config.md).
* Implicit concatenation of template expressions has been disabled. Use
`++` operator, `concat()`, or `separate()` function instead.
Example: `description ++ "\n"`
* `jj git push` will consider pushing the parent commit only when the
current commit has no content and no description, such as right after
a `jj squash`.
* The minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) is now 1.64.0.
* The `heads()` revset function was split up into two functions. `heads()`
without arguments is now called `visible_heads()`. `heads()` with one argument
is unchanged.
* The `ui.default-revset` config was renamed to `revsets.log`.
* The `jj sparse` command was split up into `jj sparse list` and
`jj sparse set`.
* `jj hide` (alias for `jj abandon`) is no longer available. Use `jj abandon`
instead.
* `jj debug completion`, `jj debug mangen` and `jj debug config-schema` have
been moved from `jj debug` to `jj util`.
* `jj` will no longer parse `br` as a git_ref `refs/heads/br` when a branch `br`
does not exist but the git_ref does (this is rare). Use `br@git` instead.
* `jj git fetch` will no longer import unrelated branches from the underlying
Git repo.
### New features
* `jj git push --deleted` will remove all locally deleted branches from the
remote.
* `jj restore` without `--from` works correctly even if `@` is a merge
commit.
* `jj rebase` now accepts multiple `-s` and `-b` arguments. Revsets with
multiple commits are allowed with `--allow-large-revsets`.
* `jj git fetch` now supports a `--branch` argument to fetch some of the
branches only.
* `jj config get` command allows retrieving config values for use in scripting.
* `jj config set` command allows simple config edits like
`jj config set --repo user.email "somebody@example.com"`
* Added `ui.log-word-wrap` option to wrap `jj log`/`obslog`/`op log` content
based on terminal width. [#1043](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1043)
* Nodes in the (text-based) graphical log output now use a `◉` symbol instead
of the letter `o`. The ASCII-based graph styles still use `o`.
* Commands that accept a diff format (`jj diff`, `jj interdiff`, `jj show`,
`jj log`, and `jj obslog`) now accept `--types` to show only the type of file
before and after.
* `jj describe` now supports `--reset-author` for resetting a commit's author
to the configured user. `jj describe` also gained a `--no-edit` option to
avoid opening the editor.
* Added `latest(x[, n])` revset function to select the latest `n` commits.
* Added `conflict()` revset function to select commits with conflicts.
* `jj squash` AKA `jj amend` now accepts a `--message` option to set the
description of the squashed commit on the command-line.
* The progress display on `jj git clone/fetch` now includes the downloaded size.
* The formatter now supports a "default" color that can override another color
defined by a parent style.
* `jj obslog` and `jj log` now show abandoned commits as hidden.
* `jj git fetch` and `jj git push` will now use the single defined remote even
if it is not named "origin".
* `jj git push` now accepts `--branch` and `--change` arguments together.
* `jj git push` now accepts a `-r/--revisions` flag to specify revisions to
push. All branches pointing to any of the specified revisions will be pushed.
The flag can be used together with `--branch` and `--change`.
* `jj` with no subcommand now defaults to `jj log` instead of showing help. This
command can be overridden by setting `ui.default-command`.
* Description tempfiles created via `jj describe` now have the file extension
`.jjdescription` to help external tooling detect a unique filetype.
* The shortest unique change ID prefixes and commit ID prefixes in `jj log` are
now shorter within the default log revset. You can override the default by
setting the `revsets.short-prefixes` config to a different revset.
* The last seen state of branches in the underlying git repo is now presented by
`jj branch list`/`jj log` as a remote called `git` (e.g. `main@git`). They can
also be referenced in revsets. Such branches exist in colocated repos or if
you use `jj git export`.
* The new `jj chmod` command allows setting or removing the executable bit on
paths. Unlike the POSIX `chmod`, it works on Windows, on conflicted files, and
on arbitrary revisions. Bits other than the executable bit are not planned to
be supported.
* `jj sparse set` now accepts an `--edit` flag which brings up the `$EDITOR` to
edit sparse patterns.
* `jj branch list` can now be filtered by revset.
* Initial support for the Watchman filesystem monitor. Set
`core.fsmonitor = "watchman"` in your repo to enable.
### Fixed bugs
* Modify/delete conflicts now include context lines
[#1244](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1244).
* It is now possible to modify either side of a modify/delete conflict (any
change used to be considered a resolution).
* Fixed a bug that could get partially resolved conflicts to be interpreted
incorrectly.
* `jj git fetch`: when re-adding a remote repository that had been previously
removed, in some situations the remote branches were not recreated.
* `jj git remote rename`: the git remote references were not rewritten with
the new name. If a new remote with the old name and containing the same
branches was added, the remote branches may not be recreated in some cases.
* `jj workspace update-stale` now snapshots the working-copy changes before
updating to the new working-copy commit.
* It is no longer allowed to create branches at the root commit.
* `git checkout` (without using `jj`) in colocated repo no longer abandons
the previously checked-out anonymous branch.
[#1042](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1042).
* `jj git fetch` in a colocated repo now abandons branches deleted on the
remote, just like in a non-colocated repo.
[#864](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/864)
* `jj git fetch` can now fetch forgotten branches even if they didn't move on
the remote.
[#1714](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/1714)
[#1771](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/1771)
* It is now possible to `jj branch forget` deleted branches.
[#1537](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1537)
* Fixed race condition when assigning change id to Git commit. If you've
already had unreachable change ids, run `jj debug reindex`.
[#924](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/924)
* Fixed false divergence on racy working-copy snapshots.
[#697](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/697),
[#1608](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/1608)
* In colocated repos, a bug causing conflicts when undoing branch moves (#922)
has been fixed. Some surprising behaviors related to undoing `jj git push` or
`jj git fetch` remain.

## [0.7.0] - 2023-02-16
### Breaking changes
* The minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) is now 1.61.0.
* The `jj touchup` command was renamed to `jj diffedit`.
* The `-i` option to `jj restore` was removed in favor of new `--from`/`--to`
options to `jj diffedit`.
* To report the situation when a change id corresponds to multiple visible
commits, `jj log` now prints the change id in red and puts `??` after it.
Previously, it printed the word "divergent".
* `jj log` prefixes commit descriptions with "(empty)" when they contain no
change compared to their parents.
* The `author`/`committer` templates now display both name and email. Use
`author.name()`/`committer.name()` to extract the name.
* Storage of the "HEAD@git" reference changed and can now have conflicts.
Operations written by a new `jj` binary will have a "HEAD@git" reference that
is not visible to older binaries.
* The `description` template keyword is now empty if no description set.
Use `if(description, description, "(no description set)\n")` to get back
the previous behavior.
* The `template.log.graph` and `template.commit_summary` config keys were
renamed to `templates.log` and `templates.commit_summary` respectively.
* If a custom `templates.log` template is set, working-copy commit will
no longer be highlighted automatically. Wrap your template with
`label(if(current_working_copy, "working_copy"), ...)` to label the
working-copy entry.
* The `ui.relative-timestamps` option has been removed. Use the
`format_timestamp()` template alias instead. For details on showing relative
timestamps in `jj log` and `jj show`, see [the documentation](docs/config.md).
* `jj op log` now shows relative timestamps by default. To disable, set
`ui.oplog-relative-timestamps` to `false`.
* The global `--no-commit-working-copy` is now called `--ignore-working-copy`.
* The `diff.format` config option is now called `ui.diff.format`. The old name
is still supported for now.
* `merge-tools.<name>.edit-args` now requires `$left`/`$right` parameters.
The default is `edit-args = ["$left", "$right"]`.
* The builtin `jj update` and `jj up` aliases for `jj checkout` have been
deleted.
* Change IDs are now rendered using letters from the end of the alphabet (from
'z' through 'k') instead of the usual hex digits ('0' through '9' and 'a'
through 'f'). This is to clarify the distinction between change IDs and commit
IDs, and to allow more efficient lookup of unique prefixes. This change
doesn't affect the storage format; existing repositories will remain usable.
### New features
* The default log format now uses the committer timestamp instead of the author
timestamp.
* `jj log --summary --patch` now shows both summary and diff outputs.
* `jj git push` now accepts multiple `--branch`/`--change` arguments
* `jj config list` command prints values from config and `config edit` opens
the config in an editor.
* `jj debug config-schema` command prints out JSON schema for the jj TOML config
file format.
* `jj resolve --list` can now describe the complexity of conflicts.
* `jj resolve` now notifies the user of remaining conflicts, if any, on success.
This can be prevented by the new `--quiet` option.
* Per-repository configuration is now read from `.jj/repo/config.toml`.
* Background colors, bold text, and underlining are now supported. You can set
e.g. `color.error = { bg = "red", bold = true, underline = true }` in your
`~/.jjconfig.toml`.
* The `empty` condition in templates is true when the commit makes no change to
the three compared to its parents.
* `branches([needle])` revset function now takes `needle` as an optional
argument and matches just the branches whose name contains `needle`.
* `remote_branches([branch_needle[, remote_needle]])` now takes `branch_needle`
and `remote_needle` as optional arguments and matches just the branches whose
name contains `branch_needle` and remote contains `remote_needle`.
* `jj git fetch` accepts repeated `--remote` arguments.
* Default remotes can be configured for the `jj git fetch` and `jj git push`
operations ("origin" by default) using the `git.fetch` and `git.push`
configuration entries. `git.fetch` can be a list if multiple remotes must
be fetched from.
* `jj duplicate` can now duplicate multiple changes in one go. This preserves
any parent-child relationships between them. For example, the entire tree of
descendants of `abc` can be duplicated with `jj duplicate abc:`.
* `jj log` now highlights the shortest unique prefix of every commit and change
id and shows the rest in gray. To customize the length and style, use the
`format_short_id()` template alias. For details, see
[the documentation](docs/config.md).
* `jj print` was renamed to `jj cat`. `jj print` remains as an alias.
* In content that goes to the terminal, the ANSI escape byte (0x1b) is replaced
by a "␛" character. That prevents them from interfering with the ANSI escapes
jj itself writes.
* `jj workspace root` prints the root path of the current workspace.
* The `[alias]` config section was renamed to `[aliases]`. The old name is
still accepted for backwards compatibility for some time.
* Commands that draw an ASCII graph (`jj log`, `jj op log`, `jj obslog`) now
have different styles available by setting e.g. `ui.graph.style = "curved"`.
* `jj split` accepts creating empty commits when given a path. `jj split .`
inserts an empty commit between the target commit and its children if any,
and `jj split any-non-existent-path` inserts an empty commit between the
target commit and its parents.
* Command arguments to `ui.diff-editor`/`ui.merge-editor` can now be specified
inline without referring to `[merge-tools]` table.
* `jj rebase` now accepts a new `--allow-large-revsets` argument that allows the
revset in the `-d` argument to expand to several revisions. For example,
`jj rebase -s B -d B- -d C` now works even if `B` is a merge commit.
* `jj new` now also accepts a `--allow-large-revsets` argument that behaves
similarly to `jj rebase --allow-large-revsets`.
* `jj new --insert-before` inserts the new commit between the target commit and
its parents.
* `jj new --insert-after` inserts the new commit between the target commit and
its children.
* `author`/`committer` templates now support `.username()`, which leaves out the
domain information of `.email()`.
* It is now possible to change the author format of `jj log` with the
`format_short_signature()` template alias. For details, see
[the documentation](docs/config.md).
* Added support for template aliases. New symbols and functions can be
configured by `template-aliases.<name> = <expression>`. Be aware that
the template syntax isn't documented yet and is likely to change.
* The `ui.diff-instructions` config setting can be set to `false` to inhibit the
creation of the `JJ-INSTRUCTIONS` file as part of diff editing.
### Fixed bugs
* When sharing the working copy with a Git repo, we used to forget to export
branches to Git when only the working copy had changed. That's now fixed.
* Commit description set by `-m`/`--message` is now terminated with a newline
character, just like descriptions set by editor are.
* The `-R`/`--repository` path must be a valid workspace directory. Its
ancestor directories are no longer searched.
* Fixed a crash when trying to access a commit that's never been imported into
the jj repo from a Git repo. They will now be considered as non-existent if
referenced explicitly instead of crashing.
* Fixed handling of escaped characters in .gitignore (only keep trailing spaces
if escaped properly).
* `jj undo` now works after `jj duplicate`.
* `jj duplicate` followed by `jj rebase` of a tree containing both the original
and duplicate commit no longer crashes. The fix should also resolve any
remaining
instances of https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/27.
* Fix the output of `jj debug completion --help` by reversing fish and zsh text.
* Fixed edge case in `jj git fetch` when a pruned branch is a prefix of another
branch.

## [0.6.1] - 2022-12-05
No changes, only changed to a released version of the `thrift` crate dependency.
## [0.6.0] - 2022-12-05
### Breaking changes
* Dropped candidates set argument from `description(needle)`, `author(needle)`,
`committer(needle)`, `merges()` revsets. Use `x & description(needle)`
instead.
* Adjusted precedence of revset union/intersection/difference operators.
`x | y & z` is now equivalent to `x | (y & z)`.
* Support for open commits has been dropped. The `ui.enable-open-commits` config
that was added in 0.5.0 is no longer respected. The `jj open/close` commands
have been deleted.
* `jj commit` is now a separate command from `jj close` (which no longer
exists). The behavior has changed slightly. It now always asks for a
description, even if there already was a description set. It now also only
works on the working-copy commit (there's no `-r` argument).
* If a workspace's working-copy commit has been updated from another workspace,
most commands in that workspace will now fail. Use the new
`jj workspace update-stale` command to update the workspace to the new
working-copy commit. (The old behavior was to automatically update the
workspace.)
### New features
* Commands with long output are paginated.
[#9](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/9)
* The new `jj git remote rename` command allows git remotes to be renamed
in-place.
* The new `jj resolve` command allows resolving simple conflicts with
an external 3-way-merge tool.
* `jj git push` will search `@-` for branches to push if `@` has none.
* The new revset function `file(pattern..)` finds commits modifying the
paths specified by the `pattern..`.
* The new revset function `empty()` finds commits modifying no files.
* Added support for revset aliases. New symbols and functions can be configured
by `revset-aliases.<name> = <expression>`.
* It is now possible to specify configuration options on the command line
with the new `--config-toml` global option.
* `jj git` subcommands will prompt for credentials when required for HTTPS
remotes rather than failing.
[#469](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/469)
* Branches that have a different target on some remote than they do locally are
now indicated by an asterisk suffix (e.g. `main*`) in `jj log`.
[#254](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/254)
* The commit ID was moved from first on the line in `jj log` output to close to
the end. The goal is to encourage users to use the change ID instead, since
that is generally more convenient, and it reduces the risk of creating
divergent commits.
* The username and hostname that appear in the operation log are now
configurable via config options `operation.username` and `operation.hostname`.
* `jj git` subcommands now support credential helpers.
* `jj log` will warn if it appears that the provided path was meant to be a
revset.
* The new global flag `-v/--verbose` will turn on debug logging to give
some additional insight into what is happening behind the scenes.
Note: This is not comprehensively supported by all operations yet.
* `jj log`, `jj show`, and `jj obslog` now all support showing relative
timestamps by setting `ui.relative-timestamps = true` in the config file.
### Fixed bugs
* A bug in the export of branches to Git caused spurious conflicted branches.
This typically occurred when running in a working copy colocated with Git
(created by running `jj init --git-dir=.`).
[#463](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/463)
* When exporting branches to Git, we used to fail if some branches could not be
exported (e.g. because Git doesn't allow a branch called `main` and another
branch called `main/sub`). We now print a warning about these branches
instead.
[#493](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/493)
* If you had modified branches in jj and also modified branches in conflicting
ways in Git, `jj git export` used to overwrite the changes you made in Git.
We now print a warning about these branches instead.
* `jj edit root` now fails gracefully.
* `jj git import` used to abandon a commit if Git branches and tags referring
to it were removed. We now keep it if a detached HEAD refers to it.
* `jj git import` no longer crashes when all Git refs are removed.
* Git submodules are now ignored completely. Earlier, files present in the
submodule directory in the working copy would become added (tracked), and
later removed if you checked out another commit. You can now use `git` to
populate the submodule directory and `jj` will leave it alone.
* Git's GC could remove commits that were referenced from jj in some cases. We
are now better at adding Git refs to prevent that.
[#815](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/815)
* When the working-copy commit was a merge, `jj status` would list only the
first parent, and the diff summary would be against that parent. The output
now lists all parents and the diff summary is against the auto-merged parents.

## [0.5.1] - 2022-10-17
No changes (just trying to get automated GitHub release to work).
## [0.5.0] - 2022-10-17
### Breaking changes
* Open commits are now disabled by default. That means that `jj checkout` will
always create a new change on top of the specified commit and will let you
edit that in the working copy. Set `ui.enable-open-commits = true` to restore
the old behavior and let us know that you did so we know how many people
prefer the workflow with open commits.
* `jj [op] undo` and `jj op restore` used to take the operation to undo or
restore to as an argument to `-o/--operation`. It is now a positional
argument instead (i.e. `jj undo -o abc123` is now written `jj undo abc123`).
* An alias that is not configured as a string list (e.g. `my-status = "status"`
instead of `my-status = ["status"]`) is now an error instead of a warning.
* `jj log` now defaults to showing only commits that are not on any remote
branches (plus their closest commit on the remote branch for context). This
set of commits can be overridden by setting `ui.default-revset`. Use
`jj log -r 'all()'` for the old behavior. Read more about revsets
[here](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/blob/main/docs/revsets.md).
[#250](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/250)
* `jj new` now always checks out the new commit (used to be only if the parent
was `@`).
* `jj merge` now checks out the new commit. The command now behaves exactly
like `jj new`, except that it requires at least two arguments.
* When the working-copy commit is abandoned by `jj abandon` and the parent
commit is open, a new working-copy commit will be created on top (the open
parent commit used to get checked out).
* `jj branch` now uses subcommands like `jj branch create` and
`jj branch forget` instead of options like `jj branch --forget`.
[#330](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/330)
* The [`$NO_COLOR` environment variable](https://no-color.org/) no longer
overrides the `ui.color` configuration if explicitly set.
* `jj edit` has been renamed to `jj touchup`, and `jj edit` is now a new command
with different behavior. The new `jj edit` lets you edit a commit in the
working copy, even if the specified commit is closed.
* `jj git push` no longer aborts if you attempt to push an open commit (but it
now aborts if a commit does not have a description).
* `jj git push` now pushes only branches pointing to the `@` by default. Use
`--all` to push all branches.
* The `checkouts` template keyword is now called `working_copies`, and
`current_checkout` is called `current_working_copy`.
### New features
* The new `jj interdiff` command compares the changes in commits, ignoring
changes from intervening commits.
* `jj rebase` now accepts a `--branch/-b <revision>` argument, which can be used
instead of `-r` or `-s` to specify which commits to rebase. It will rebase the
whole branch, relative to the destination. The default mode has changed from
`-r @` to `-b @`.
* The new `jj print` command prints the contents of a file in a revision.
* The new `jj git remotes list` command lists the configured remotes and their
URLs.
[#243](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/243)
* `jj move` and `jj squash` now lets you limit the set of changes to move by
specifying paths on the command line (in addition to the `--interactive`
mode). For example, use `jj move --to @-- foo` to move the changes to file
(or directory) `foo` in the working copy to the grandparent commit.
* When `jj move/squash/unsquash` abandons the source commit because it became
empty and both the source and the destination commits have non-empty
descriptions, it now asks for a combined description. If either description
was empty, it uses the other without asking.
* `jj split` now lets you specify on the CLI which paths to include in the first
commit. The interactive diff-editing is not started when you do that.
* Sparse checkouts are now supported. In fact, all working copies are now
"sparse", only to different degrees. Use the `jj sparse` command to manage
the paths included in the sparse checkout.
* Configuration is now also read from `~/.jjconfig.toml`.
* The `$JJ_CONFIG` environment variable can now point to a directory. If it
does, all files in the directory will be read, in alphabetical order.
* The `$VISUAL` environment is now respected and overrides `$EDITOR`. The new
`ui.editor` config has higher priority than both of them. There is also a new
`$JJ_EDITOR` environment variable, which has even higher priority than the
config.
* You can now use `-` and `+` in revset symbols. You used to have to quote
branch names like `my-feature` in nested quotes (outer layer for your shell)
like `jj co '"my-feature"'`. The quoting is no longer needed.
* The new revset function `connected(x)` is the same as `x:x`.
* The new revset function `roots(x)` finds commits in the set that are not
descendants of other commits in the set.
* ssh-agent is now detected even if `$SSH_AGENT_PID` is not set (as long as
`$SSH_AUTH_SOCK` is set). This should help at least macOS users where
ssh-agent is launched by default and only `$SSH_AUTH_SOCK` is set.
* When importing from a git, any commits that are no longer referenced on the
git side will now be abandoned on the jj side as well. That means that
`jj git fetch` will now abandon unreferenced commits and rebase any local
changes you had on top.
* `jj git push` gained a `--change <revision>` argument. When that's used, it
will create a branch named after the revision's change ID, so you don't have
to create a branch yourself. By default, the branch name will start with
`push-`, but this can be overridden by the `push.branch-prefix` config
setting.
* `jj git push` now aborts if you attempt to push a commit without a
description or with the placeholder "(no name/email configured)" values for
author/committer.
* Diff editor command arguments can now be specified by config file.
Example:
[merge-tools.kdiff3]
program = "kdiff3"
edit-args = ["--merge", "--cs", "CreateBakFiles=0"]
* `jj branch` can accept any number of branches to update, rather than just one.
* Aliases can now call other aliases.
* `jj log` now accepts a `--reversed` option, which will show older commits
first.
* `jj log` now accepts file paths.
* `jj obslog` now accepts `-p`/`--patch` option, which will show the diff
compared to the previous version of the change.
* The "(no name/email configured)" placeholder value for name/email will now be
replaced if once you modify a commit after having configured your name/email.
* Color setting can now be overridden by `--color=always|never|auto` option.
* `jj checkout` now lets you specify a description with `--message/-m`.
* `jj new` can now be used for creating merge commits. If you pass more than
one argument to it, the new commit will have all of them as parents.
### Fixed bugs
* When rebasing a conflict where one side modified a file and the other side
deleted it, we no longer automatically resolve it in favor of the modified
content (this was a regression from commit c0ae4b16e8c4).
* Errors are now printed to stderr (they used to be printed to stdout).
* Updating the working copy to a commit where a file's executable bit changed
but the contents was the same used to lead to a crash. That has now been
fixed.
* If one side of a merge modified a directory and the other side deleted it, it
used to be considered a conflict. The same was true if both sides added a
directory with different files in. They are now merged as if the missing
directory had been empty.
* When using `jj move` to move part of a commit into an ancestor, any branches
pointing to the source commit used to be left on a hidden intermediate commit.
They are now correctly updated.
* `jj untrack` now requires at least one path (allowing no arguments was a UX
bug).
* `jj rebase` now requires at least one destination (allowing no arguments was a
UX bug).
* `jj restore --to <rev>` now restores from the working copy (it used to restore
from the working copy's parent).
* You now get a proper error message instead of a crash when `$EDITOR` doesn't
exist or exits with an error.
* Global arguments, such as `--at-op=<operation>`, can now be passed before
an alias.
* Fixed relative path to the current directory in output to be `.` instead of
empty string.
* When adding a new workspace, the parent of the current workspace's current
checkout will be checked out. That was always the intent, but the root commit
was accidentally checked out instead.
* When checking out a commit, the previous commit is no longer abandoned if it
has a non-empty description.
* All commands now consistently snapshot the working copy (it was missing from
e.g. `jj undo` and `jj merge` before).
## [0.4.0] - 2022-04-02
### Breaking changes
* Dropped support for config in `~/.jjconfig`. Your configuration is now read
from `<config dir>/jj/config.toml`, where `<config dir>` is
`${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}` or `~/.config/` on Linux,
`~/Library/Application Support/` on macOS, and `~\AppData\Roaming\` on
Windows.
### New features
* You can now set an environment variable called `$JJ_CONFIG` to a path to a
config file. That will then be read instead of your regular config file. This
is mostly intended for testing and scripts.
* The [standard `$NO_COLOR` environment variable](https://no-color.org/) is now
respected.
* `jj new` now lets you specify a description with `--message/-m`.
* When you check out a commit, the old commit no longer automatically gets
abandoned if it's empty and has descendants, it only gets abandoned if it's
empty and does not have descendants.
* When undoing an earlier operation, any new commits on top of commits from the
undone operation will be rebased away. For example, let's say you rebase
commit A so it becomes a new commit A', and then you create commit B on top of
A'. If you now undo the rebase operation, commit B will be rebased to be on
top of A instead. The same logic is used if the repo was modified by
concurrent operations (so if one operation added B on top of A, and one
operation rebased A as A', then B would be automatically rebased on top of
A'). See #111 for more examples.
[#111](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/111)
* `jj log` now accepts `-p`/`--patch` option.
### Fixed bugs
* Fixed crash on `jj init --git-repo=.` (it almost always crashed).
* When sharing the working copy with a Git repo, the automatic importing and
exporting (sometimes?) didn't happen on Windows.
