This basically supersedes the current "branch set" command. The plan is to turn "branch set" into an "upsert" command, and deprecate "branch create". (#3584) Maybe we can also add "branch set --new" flag to only allow creation of new branches. One reason behind this proposed change is that "set" usually allows both "creation" and "update". However, we also need a typo-safe version of "set" to not create new branches by accident. "jj branch move" is useful when advancing ancestor branches. Let's say you've added a couple of commits on top of an existing PR branch, you can advance the branch by "jj branch move --from 'heads(::@- & branches())' --to @-". If this pattern is super common, maybe we can add --advance flag for short. One drawback of this change is that "git branch --move" is equivalent to "jj branch rename". I personally don't find this is confusing, but it's true that "move" sometimes means "rename". |
