then create one when you are done adding?

why bother? jj does it automatically and gives tools to work with such commits, no point to force this on yourself with git

sure, but i don't think it's that big of a deal either way. it's not the specific feature that draws me in. the overall concept of saving everything as a commit is interesting however. not needing to manually commit after adding changes is just a small positive side effect.

yeah, jj is a different way of working with the same underlying data structure that git also operates on. I happen to like it more than git, but it took some using to because they're both used to arrive at the same end result withing mostly the same operations.
