Lazygit

A lazygit theme for the ambitious.

Installation

Finding your config directory

Lazygit respects XDG (for macOS and Linux), and uses AppData on Windows. So, below are the default config directories:

• Linux: ~/.config/lazygit/config.yml
• MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/lazygit/config.yml
• Windows: %APPDATA%\lazygit\config.yml

If you cannot find the config files there, or your changes are not taking effect, you can ask lazygit itself for the config directory:

lazygit --print-config-dir

Keep this directory in mind for all future steps, replacing <config-dir> when relevant.

Apply the theme

Edit the gui option of <config-dir>/config.yaml with the embark palette shown below.
