v0.31.0

About

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

Breaking changes

• Revset expressions like hidden_id | description(x) now search the specified
  hidden revision and its ancestors as well
  as all visible revisions.

• Commit templates no longer normalize description by appending final newline
  character. Use description.trim_end() ++ "\n" if needed.

Deprecations

• The git.push-bookmark-prefix setting is deprecated in favor of
  templates.git_push_bookmark, which supports templating. The old setting can
  be expressed in template as "<prefix>" ++ change_id.short().

New features

• New change_id(prefix)/commit_id(prefix) revset functions to explicitly
  query commits by change/commit ID prefix.

• The parents() and children() revset functions now accept an optional
  depth argument. For instance, parents(x, 3) is equivalent to x---, and
  children(x, 3) is equivalent to x+++.

• jj evolog can now follow changes from multiple revisions such as divergent
  revisions.

• jj diff now accepts -T/--template option to customize summary output.

• Log node templates are now specified in toml rather than hardcoded.

• Templates now support json(x) function to serialize values in JSON format.

• The ANSI 256-color palette can be used when configuring colors. For example,
  colors."diff removed token" = { bg = "ansi-color-52", underline = false }
  will apply a dark red background on removed words in diffs.

Fixed bugs

• jj file annotate can now process files at a hidden revision.

• jj op log --op-diff no longer fails at displaying "reconcile divergent
  operations." #4465

• jj util gc --expire=now now passes the corresponding flag to git gc.

• change_id/commit_id.shortest() template functions now take conflicting
  bookmark and tag names into account.
  #2416

• Fixed lockfile issue on stale file handles observed with NFS.

Packaging changes

• aarch64-windows builds (release binaries and main snapshots) are now provided.
