This is not a Google product. It is an experimental version-control system
(VCS). I (Martin von Zweigbergk <[email protected]>) started it as a hobby
project in late 2019. That said, this is now my full-time project at Google. My
presentation from Git Merge 2022 has information about Google's plans. See the

## Contributing

We welcome outside contributions, and there's plenty of things to do, so
don't be shy. Please ask if you want a pointer on something you can help with,
and hopefully we can all figure something out.

We do have [a few policies and
suggestions](https://martinvonz.github.io/jj/prerelease/contributing/)
for contributors. The broad TL;DR:

- Bug reports are very welcome!
- Every commit that lands in the `main` branch is code reviewed.
- Please behave yourself, and obey the Community Guidelines.
- There **is** a mandatory CLA you must agree to. Importantly, it **does not**
transfer copyright ownership to Google or anyone else; it simply gives us the
right to safely redistribute and use your changes.

### Mandatory Google Disclaimer

I (Martin von Zweigbergk, <[email protected]>) started Jujutsu as a hobby
project in late 2019, and it has evolved into my full-time project at Google,
with several other Googlers (now) assisting development in various capacities.
That said, **this is not a Google product**.
