Git doesn't fundamentally work with diffs (patches). It stores the complete file and generates a diff.

So you can use any diff tool you like with git, and I presume also with JJ. Look for the setting.

Edit: in git it's the diff.external setting

I know I can. I want to use jjui, but its UI isn't as good, so I use lazygit.

    There's also lazyjj. I haven't really bothered with a TUI yet so can't say which has nicer diffs, but you might try it.

      I've tried lazyjj, but jjui was better (at least, back when I tried it).
