# delta

![delta](/imgs/delta.png)


## 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`:

```gitconfig
[core]
    pager = delta

[interactive]
    diffFilter = delta --color-only

[delta]
    navigate = true    # use n and N to move between diff sections
    light = false      # set to true if you're in a terminal w/ a light background color (e.g. the default macOS terminal)

[merge]
    conflictstyle = diff3

[diff]
    colorMoved = default
```

Delta has many features and is very customizable; please see the [user manual](https://dandavison.github.io/delta/).

## Features

- Language syntax highlighting with the same syntax-highlighting themes as [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#readme)
- Word-level diff highlighting using a Levenshtein edit inference algorithm
- Side-by-side view with line-wrapping
- Line numbering
- `n` and `N` keybindings to move between files in large diffs, and between diffs in `log -p` views (`--navigate`)
- Improved merge conflict display
- Improved `git blame` display (syntax highlighting; `--hyperlinks` formats commits as links to hosting provider etc. Supported hosting providers are: GitHub, GitLab, SourceHut, Codeberg)
- Syntax-highlights grep output from `rg`, `git grep`, `grep`, etc
- Support for Git's `--color-moved` feature.
- Code can be copied directly from the diff (`-/+` markers are removed by default).
- `diff-highlight` and `diff-so-fancy` emulation modes
- Commit hashes can be formatted as terminal [hyperlinks](https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda) to the hosting provider page (`--hyperlinks`).
  File paths can also be formatted as hyperlinks for opening in your OS.
- Stylable box/line decorations to draw attention to commit, file and hunk header sections.
- Style strings (foreground color, background color, font attributes) are supported for >20 stylable elements, using the same color/style language as git
- Handles traditional unified diff output in addition to git output

## A syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, and grep output

Code evolves, and we all spend time studying diffs. Delta aims to make this both efficient and enjoyable: it allows you to make extensive changes to the layout and styling of diffs, as well as allowing you to stay arbitrarily close to the default git/diff output.

Here's what `git show` can look like with git configured to use delta:

  <tr>
    <td>
      <img width=500px style="border: 1px solid black"
           src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/52205/81058545-a5725f80-8e9c-11ea-912e-d21954586a44.png"

  </tr>

### Syntax-highlighting themes

**All the syntax-highlighting color themes that are available with [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat/) are available with delta:**

<br>
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <img width=400px style="border: 1px solid black"
           src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/52205/149431273-e3ad049d-771e-4186-869d-0e57967958a6.png"
           alt="image" />
    </td>
    <td>
      <img width=400px style="border: 1px solid black"
           src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/52205/149431419-48836001-2afc-4fd0-97ad-561a69b71db7.png"
           alt="image" />
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <code>delta --show-syntax-themes --dark</code>
    </td>
    <td>
      <code>delta --show-syntax-themes --light</code>
    </td>
  </tr>

### Side-by-side view

[[User manual](https://dandavison.github.io/delta/side-by-side-view.html)]

```gitconfig
[delta]
    side-by-side = true
```

By default, side-by-side view has line-numbers activated, and has syntax highlighting in both the left and right panels: [[config](#side-by-side-view-1)]

<table><tr><td><img width=800px src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/52205/87230973-412eb900-c381-11ea-8aec-cc200290bd1b.png" alt="image" /></td></tr></table>

Side-by-side view wraps long lines automatically:

<table><tr><td><img width=600px src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/52205/139064537-f8479504-16d3-429a-b4f6-d0122438adaa.png" alt="image" /></td></tr></table>
