-vr — read code and take notes; every call is logged in a private jj sidecar.
+notevi — read code and take notes; every call is logged in a private jj sidecar.
read a file (line-numbered, relative to a jj revision):
- vr read FILE whole file
- vr read FILE:120-180 line range (or FILE:120 for one line)
- vr read -r REV FILE the file as it is in another jj change
+ notevi read FILE whole file
+ notevi read FILE:120-180 line range (or FILE:120 for one line)
+ notevi read -r REV FILE the file as it is in another jj change
search (regex):
- vr grep PATTERN [PATH] search the working copy
- vr grep -r REV PATTERN PATH search another change (scope with PATH)
+ notevi grep PATTERN [PATH] search the working copy
+ notevi grep -r REV PATTERN PATH search another change (scope with PATH)
take a note while reading (ids count up from 1 per session):
- vr note -f FILE:10-42 TEXT... about a line range
- vr note -t struct -f FILE:10-42 TEXT... about a struct/enum/const/fn/...
- vr note -r REV -f FILE TEXT... about code in another change
- vr note -reply 12 TEXT... reply to log-wide note #12

-vr query -op note shows both the session-local id and the log-wide id used by
--reply and vrsite /note/N permalinks.

REV is any jj revset; default @ (the working copy).
-The repo-local revset alias vr_log names the log change. vr creates it lazily
-as an anonymous child of root(); it never appears in the project working copy.
-Every new entry records the full target change id and exact target commit id.
-An existing repo-root vr-log.jsonl is read and imported on the first append;
-vr leaves that legacy working-tree file for you to remove after migration.
+The repo-local revset alias notevi_log names the log change. notevi creates it
+lazily as an anonymous child of root(); it never appears in the project working
+copy. Every new entry records the full target change id and exact target commit
+id. A sidecar left by the older vr tool is renamed in place the first time
+notevi writes to it, and an existing repo-root vr-log.jsonl is read and imported
+on the first append; notevi leaves that legacy working-tree file for you to
+remove after migration.
The sidecar has no bookmark and is deliberately local-only: a fresh clone will
not contain it, so include the jj repository in backups when notes matter.
