Anything you can do in Jujitsu you can do in git.. The big difference is a paradime change:

-instead of a working directory that has pending changes you need to add than commit, all changes are in a commit that is lacking metadata.

The system has better "editing" of local history to set that meta data. But once you push to a shared repo you run the usual risks of force pushing.

I'm not sold, rather git not do anything until asked and just run git status constantly but I don't have first hand experience.. I would theory it would be more likely to add a file you didn't mean to.. Unlike those who use windows guis for git and forget to add new files.
