Comment on Show HN: A visual guide to learning Jujutsu (JJ)parent

This scenario seems similarly complex with Git and jj.

It is in number of commands ran, but there's a few annoyances around changes getting into the repo automatically.

There's a lot of git commits coming from jj's constant snapshots. Maybe this is a good thing overall, but it brings some silly issues,

What to do when data that shouldn't leave the dev machine gets to the repo? I'm thinking secrets, large files, generated files. - Leaking secrets by mistake seems easier. - Getting large files/directories into the git snapshots might degrade git's performance.

It seems that you need to be diligent with your ignores or get forced to learn more advanced commands right away. I guess there's a more advanced history scrub command around though.
