one of the better jj writeups. People, just TRY it out.

It needs a newer Rust version than what is available in my packages and figuring out how to properly bootstrap Rust seams like too much work. And no I will not run the equivalent of curl|bash in anyway.

  • This might help you manage different versions of different tools https://mise.jdx.dev/

    Mise and jj (and jjui) are my favourite tools, by far.

    • Well the issue I have is that I don't want more than one package manager on my system, and I prefer it to be from the OS, because I already need to trust this by necessity.

      In my opinion having multiple package managers only complicates the system and causes more problems then it solves. In fact I think the package manager is the OS. I can swap out the kernel and all the userspace with it, but changing the package manager will be disruptive.
