With jj you're always the prod whatever you do! Feel free to break that fucking CI.

You may or may not be joking, but jujutsu is the first true git alternative that I'm actively trying on small projects at work. The command-line is great, and I can still interact with other devs without breaking stuff.

Buuuuuuuut if you're a CS student, don't bother, it's weird and you should focus on git which is used everywhere. You can get free GUI clients like Sublime Merge or SmartGit to ease the pain. I've been hating git since the beginning, but it's the least worst SCM right now. Learn the command-line, but I have never done that since it's infuriating, and that's why I've been using GUIs since, holy shit, Wikipedia says 2005.

Is just half a joke, i do like to try it out a lot of different things, be whatever it may be, so i'm totally finding a project to use this, and also i don't really like to use a GUI for git simce most of my workflow happens in a terminal, and even tho i do like how git works i am open to try something new and see if it's better for me or not

Try Mercurial too. Both projects started at the same time but git won. Mercurial is equivalent but its interesting.
