v0.32.0

About

jj is a Git-compatible version control system that is both simple and powerful. See
the installation instructions to get started.

Breaking changes

• In revsets, symbol expressions (such as change ID prefix) no longer resolve to
  multiple revisions, and error out if resolved to more than one revisions. Use
  change_id(prefix) or bookmarks(exact:name) to query divergent changes or
  conflicted bookmarks. Commands like jj rebase no longer require all: to
  specify multiple destination revisions.

• jj op abandon now discards previous versions of a change (or predecessors)
  if they become unreachable from the operation history. The evolution history
  is truncated accordingly.

  Once jj op abandon and jj util gc are run in a repository, old versions of
  jj might get "commit not found" error on jj evolog.

• commit.working_copies() template method now returns List<WorkspaceRef>

• The previously predefined amend alias has been removed. You can restore it
  by setting the config aliases.amend = ["squash"].

Deprecations

• The all: revset modifier and ui.always-allow-large-revsets setting is
  planned to be removed in a future release.
  #6016

• Rename the core.fsmonitor and core.watchman settings to
  fsmonitor.backend, and fsmonitor.watchman respectively.

New features

• jj workspace list now accepts -T/--template option to customize its
  output via templates.

• Added templates.workspace_list template to customize the output of
  jj workspace list.

• jj fix now buffers the standard error stream from subprocesses and emits
  the output from each all at once. The file name is printed before the output.

• jj status now collapses fully untracked directories into one line.
  It still fully traverses them while snapshotting but they won't clutter up
  the output with all of their contents.

• Add the working-copy.eol-conversion config which is similar to the git
  core.autocrlf config. A heuristics is used to detect if a file is a binary
  file to prevent the EOL conversion from changing binary files unexpectedly.

• Add a .parents() method to the
  Operation type in the templating
  language.

• Merge tools config can now explicitly forbid using them as diff editors or
  diff formatters. Built-in tools that do not function well as diff editing
  tools or as diff formatters will now report an error when used as such.

• jj diffedit now accepts filesets to edit only the specified paths.

• AnnotationLine objects in templates now have a original_line_number() -> Integer method.

• Commit templates now support .files() to list all existing files at that
  revision.

• Glob patterns now support {foo,bar} syntax. There may be subtle behavior
  changes as we use the globset library now.

• The new bisect(x) revset function can help bisect a range of commits to
  find when a bug was introduced.

• New first_parent() and first_ancestors() revset functions which are
  similar to parents() and ancestors(), but only traverse the first parent
  of each commit (similar to Git's --first-parent option).

• New signing.backends.ssh.revocation-list config for specifying a list of revoked
  public keys for commit signature verification.

• jj fix commands now replace $root with the workspace's root path. This is
  useful for tools stored inside the workspace.

Fixed bugs

• Fixed an error in jj util gc caused by the empty blob being missing from
  the Git store. #7062

• jj op diff -p and jj op log -p now show content diffs from the first
  predecessor only. #7090

• jj git fetch no longer shows NaN% progress when connecting to slow remotes.
  #7155
