Is Jujutsu compatible with my existing Git repositories?

Yes, Jujutsu is fully Git-compatible. You can initialize it in an existing Git repo using the --colocate flag, which allows both tools to work on the same directory simultaneously.

How does Jujutsu handle the staging area differently than Git?

Jujutsu eliminates the staging area entirely. Your current working directory is always treated as an open commit that is automatically updated as you save files.

Can I undo a mistaken command in Jujutsu?

Absolutely. Jujutsu tracks every action in an operation log. You can use 'jj undo' to revert the last command or 'jj op restore' to jump back to any previous state in your history.

What happens if a rebase causes a conflict in Jujutsu?

Conflicts in Jujutsu are 'first-class,' meaning the rebase operation still succeeds and the conflict is recorded inside the commit itself. You can resolve it at your convenience without blocking other work.
