JJ View

JJ View brings the power of Jujutsu (jj) version control directly into VS Code. Visualize your revision graph, manage changes, and streamline your workflow without leaving the editor.

Features

🌲 Interactive Revision Graph

Visualize your jj repo history with a clear, interactive graph.

  • View History: See commits, branches, and the working copy in a topological view.
  • Inspect Changes: Click on any node to view details and diffs.
  • Context Actions: Right-click nodes to perform actions like editing, squashing, or abandoning changes.
  • Drag & Drop Workflows:
    • Rebase Source: Drag a commit onto another to rebase it (and its children) onto the target.
    • Rebase Revision: Hold Ctrl (or ⌘ on macOS) while dragging to rebase only the specific revision.
    • Move Bookmarks: Drag bookmark pills from one commit to another to move them.
  • Selection:
    • Multi-Select: Ctrl+Click (or ⌘+Click) to select multiple commits.
    • Contextual Commands: Perform bulk actions like "Abandon" on all selected commits.
    • Clear: Press Escape to clear the selection.

📝 Commit Details Panel

🛠️ Source Control Integration

  • Commit Management: Create new changes, set descriptions, and squash changes directly from the SCM panel.
  • Merge Conflicts: Identify and resolve conflicts using VS Code's merge editor.
  • File Decorations: Automatically highlights modified, added, and conflicted files in the Explorer with color-coded badges.
