README.md

Original

This Emacs package provides a minor mode which configures Magit to use delta when displaying diffs.

  1. Install delta.

  2. Install magit-delta from MELPA.

  3. Use M-x magit-delta-mode to toggle between using delta, and normal magit behavior. To activate it automatically:

    (add-hook 'magit-mode-hook (lambda () (magit-delta-mode +1)))

    Or with use-package

    (use-package magit-delta
  :hook (magit-mode . magit-delta-mode))
