Definitely not. Switch to a previous commit, make edits, changes propagate into the future commits (including into a git repo if you wish [1])

Jj is not git and is not a git tool, it just (thankfully) uses git as a backend, so you can still carry on with the rest of the world.

In what way is that different from using `git rebase -i` to edit a commit?
