Key Configuration

We have two key sets vi and mc preconfigured. The default one is vi.

Using the mc key set

You will need to place a file at ~/.config/git-commander/config.json with the following content:

{
    "keySet": "mc"
}

Redefining keys one by one

You also can redefine keys one by one if you would like. You'll need to extend your ~/.config/git-commander/config.json file with a key called keys and put all your key definitions there. For example if you would like to use the mc key set and make key x quit the application, you'll need to add the following:

{
    "keySet": "mc",
    "keys": {
        "common": {
            "quit": [
                "x"
            ]
        }
    }
}

You can find default settings here.

Troubleshootings

ANSI color codes are displayed

ANSI color codes are being displayed if you set "always" for color settings in your .gitconfig. For fixing this, set "auto" for color settings like below.

[color]
    # diff = always
    diff = auto
    status = auto
    ui = auto
    branch = auto

Non-ascii character problem

If you use non-ascii character for source files, You need to disable the core.quotepath option using following command:

$ git config --global core.quotepath false
