Git File Status Badges

#21

I got that setting from the defaults; if you don’t see it in your file, you might have an override on Defaults/Preferences.sublime-settings from a previous build in place. I would check the Packages folder to see if that’s the case.

As a shameless self plug, my OverrideAudit package can be helpful in finding those sorts of things as well.

In case anyone else is having a hard time making the git badges less prominent, this is what I did. These are MacOS instructions. The Sublime Text directory would be different on other platforms.

  1. Lookup the name of your theme in Preferences > Theme …
  2. Make a new file and save it in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/
  3. Name the file according to the name of your theme. My theme was “Spacegray.sublime-theme”, so that’s the name of the theme customization file too.
  4. Here’s the content of the file:
[
    {
        "class": "vcs_status_badge",
        "layer0.tint": "color(#65737F))",
        "layer0.opacity": 0.5,
    },
]
  1. Modify the values “#65737F” and “0.5” for the color and opacity until the badge icons look good. The UI should update automatically with the new colors when you save the file.
