## Summary

jj (Jujutsu) version 0.38.0 introduces security improvements by moving per-repo and per-workspace config outside the repository with automatic migration. Breaking changes include requiring Git 2.41.0+, removing deprecated settings, and changing conflict marker behavior. New features include enhanced git fetch output, automatic bookmark tracking, git_web_url() template function, divergent() revset function, experimental tag fetching, and improved hyperlink handling. Bug fixes address Git worktree initialization, remote bookmark updates, authentication forwarding, and Watchman filesystem monitoring.
