π jj-git-colocation-disable β a manual page, but make it a group chat π
okay bestie, this is the manual page for jj-git-colocation-disable, from the General Commands Manual (yes, section 1, the "you can actually run this" section) β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
jj-git-colocation-disable β turn your repo into a non-colocated Jujutsu/Git repository π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
jj git colocation disable [-R|--repository] [--ignore-working-copy]
[--no-integrate-operation] [--ignore-immutable] [--at-operation]
[--debug] [--color] [--quiet] [--no-pager] [--config] [--config-file]
[-h|--help]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
Convert into a non-colocated Jujutsu/Git repository. That's the whole vibe.
So here's the tea: this command takes the Git repository that's sitting at the root of your Jujutsu workspace and moves it into the .jj directory. Once that's done, bestie, you will no longer be able to use Git commands directly in the Jujutsu workspace. It's giving "we're breaking up but for good reasons." πβ¨
π OPTIONS π
-h,--helpβ Print help (see a summary with-h)
π GLOBAL OPTIONS π
-R,--repository <REPOSITORY>β Path to repository to operate on
By default, Jujutsu searches for the closest .jj/ directory in an ancestor of the current working directory. It's literally just walking up the tree looking for its home π
--ignore-working-copyβ Don't snapshot the working copy, and don't update it
By default, Jujutsu snapshots the working copy at the beginning of every command. The working copy is also updated at the end of the command, if the command modified the working-copy commit (@). If you want to avoid snapshotting the working copy and instead see a possibly stale working-copy commit, you can use --ignore-working-copy. This may be useful e.g. in a command prompt, especially if you have another process that commits the working copy.
Loading the repository at a specific operation with --at-operation implies --ignore-working-copy. Noted π
--no-integrate-operationβ Run the command as usual but don't integrate any operations
When this option is given, the operations will still be created as usual but they will not be integrated to the operation log. The working copy will also not be updated.
The command will print the resulting operation ID. You can pass that to e.g. jj --at-op to inspect the resulting repo state, or you can pass it to jj op restore to restore the repo to that state. You can also pass the ID to jj op integrate to integrate the operation.
Note that this does not prevent side effects outside the repo. For example, jj git push --no-integrate-operation will still perform the push. So likeβ¦ the push still happens, bestie. Don't be fooled π
--ignore-immutableβ Allow rewriting immutable commits
By default, Jujutsu prevents rewriting commits in the configured set of immutable commits. This option disables that check and lets you rewrite any commit but the root commit. The root commit stays untouchable, periodt.
This option only affects the check. It does not affect the immutable_heads() revset or the immutable template keyword.
--at-operation <AT_OPERATION>β Operation to load the repo at
Operation to load the repo at. By default, Jujutsu loads the repo at the most recent operation, or at the merge of the divergent operations if any.
You can use --at-op=<operation ID> to see what the repo looked like at an earlier operation. For example jj --at-op=<operation ID> st will show you what jj st would have shown you when the given operation had just finished. --at-op=@ is pretty much the same as the default except that divergent operations will never be merged.
Use jj op log to find the operation ID you want. Any unambiguous prefix of the operation ID is enough. Short king energy π
When loading the repo at an earlier operation, the working copy will be ignored, as if --ignore-working-copy had been specified.
It is possible to run mutating commands when loading the repo at an earlier operation. Doing that is equivalent to having run concurrent commands starting at the earlier operation. There's rarely a reason to do that, but it is possible. Highkey chaotic behaviour but okay π
--debugβ Enable debug logging--color <WHEN>β When to colorize output
Possible values:
alwaysneverdebugauto
--quietβ Silence non-primary command output
For example, jj file list will still list files, but it won't tell you if the working copy was snapshotted or if descendants were rebased. It's the "no small talk, just results" setting π
Warnings and errors will still be printed. Because safety first, always π«Ά
--no-pagerβ Disable the pager--config <NAME=VALUE>β Additional configuration options (can be repeated)
The name should be specified as TOML dotted keys. The value should be specified as a TOML expression. If string value isn't enclosed by any TOML constructs (such as array notation), quotes can be omitted.
--config-file <PATH>β Additional configuration files (can be repeated)
π warning bestie: once this command runs, Git commands straight up do not work in the Jujutsu workspace anymore. Commit to the bit or don't run it β¨
and that's the whole page, bestie!! this one came from General Commands Manual, disable, and the page footer says jj-git-col...ion-disable(1) β so, like, that's the whole citation, no cap. go forth and un-colocate π¦πβ¨
