Randall Mason fb32a417ee Add Sturdy to related work
Sturdy came up a while ago on lobste.rs when [jj was being discussed](https://lobste.rs/s/47zztj/jujutsu_dvcs).  I'm not sure if I described it well, or if it's something you want as related-work, especially since the sturdy founder claims to be solving different problems in the very thread.  But it does seem to be doing some similar things to removing the idea of an index/staging area.

Similar tools:

  • git-branchless: Helps you use a branchless workflow in your Git repo. Supports anonymous branching, undo, and faster rebase (git move). Under heavy development and quickly gaining new features.
  • GitUp: A Mac-only GUI for Git. Like Jujutsu, supports undo and restoring the repo to an earlier snapshot. Backed by its GitUpKit library.
  • Gitless: Another attempt at providing a simpler interface for Git. Like Jujutsu, does not have an "index"/"staging area" concept. Also doesn't move the working copy changes between branches (which we do simply as a consequence of making the working copy a commit).
  • Pijul: Architecturally quite different from Jujutsu, but its "first-class conflicts" feature seems quite similar to ours.
  • Breezy: Another VCS that's similar in that it has multiple storage backends, including its own format as well as .git support.
  • Sturdy: A Git backed GUI that eliminates local and remote as well as the idea of an "index"/"staging area".
