git-delta

Get Started

[Install it](https://dandavison.github.io/delta/installation.html) (the package is called "git-delta" in most package managers, but the executable is just `delta`) and add this to your `~/.gitconfig`:

[core]
    pager = delta

[interactive]
    diffFilter = delta --color-only

[delta]
    navigate = true  # use n and N to move between diff sections
    dark = true      # or light = true, or omit for auto-detection

[merge]
    conflictStyle = zdiff3

Or run:

git config --global core.pager delta
git config --global interactive.diffFilter 'delta --color-only'
git config --global delta.navigate true
git config --global delta.dark true  # or `delta.light true`, or omit for auto-detection
git config --global merge.conflictStyle zdiff3

Delta has many features and is very customizable; please see `delta -h` (short help) or `delta --help` (full manual), or the [online user manual](https://dandavison.github.io/delta/).
