The goal appears to be completely compatible with Git repos (in the sense that the other people working on a repo don't have to know or care that you're using jj), but pull in good ideas from Mercurial, Sapling and Darcs.

As a long time user (and fan) of Mercurial, I eventually moved on because there is no escaping git. _But_, having now used jujutsu for a bit, I feel like it is my life boat. It has the UX ethos of Mercurial but interacts with git repositories as a first class citizen.
