Proposal: Rename Jujutsu to Jojo #225

Closed maxsu closed 11 months ago

maxsu commented 2 years ago

Proposal

Rename jj's full name from Jujutsu to Jojo. image Reasons Pro

+ Jojo is shorter and easier to write, say, and remember than Jujutsu
+ Jojo memes are based

Reasons Con

- Naming a DVCS after an anime might clash /w the author's style

Summary

To tap into the great love of Jojo and his Bizarre Adventures, and to make jj's full name easier to remember, we should rename it to Jojo.

Heh, fine with me. Maybe people are less familiar with jujutsu than I thought. I actually renamed it from "jujube" (a fruit) because it seemed most people had never heard of that. We can have a vote when we get closer to 1.0, I guess :)

This is one user's (opinionated) vote for sticking with "jujutsu".

I'm on board for spurious non-technical reasons (specifically, the equivalent of a git clone potentially being named za warudo).
