I'm experimenting with jj this weekend. It seems pretty nice so far, but the mental model is pretty different from git.
For example, there's no `checkout` command. You do `jj new ABC` to switch to a commit, which creates a new empty commit on top of ABC.
It's a small thing, but I'm much happier with --version in the latest version of difftastic.
It shows the release number and the commit date. This gives you a reproducible build with age info.
It also shows OS, arch and compiler, because those are useful in bug reports.

It shows the release version number, the commit hash, and the commit date. This gives you a sense of the age of release, but you still have a reproducible build (unlike build time).
