Revisions

Revisions is the default view in jjui. All other views (Git, Oplog, Bookmarks, Diff) are stacked on top of it — pressing esc from any of them returns here.

j/k or arrows: move
pgup/pgdown: page navigation
@: jump to working copy
shift+j: jump to parent
shift+k: jump to children
space: toggle revision selection

Selection

The highlighted revision is the default source for all operations. space selects additional revisions — operations that support multi-select will use all of them.

Select multiple revisions then press r → all selected become the rebase source.
Select multiple revisions then press a → abandon applies to all of them.
esc clears the current selection.

Press n to create the revision.
Navigate to the new revision.
Press r to enter rebase mode.
Navigate to the target and press a (after) or b (before), then enter.
