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.
- Lookup the name of your theme in Preferences > Theme …
- Make a new file and save it in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/
- 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.
- Here’s the content of the file:
[
{
"class": "vcs_status_badge",
"layer0.tint": "color(#65737F))",
"layer0.opacity": 0.5,
},
]
- 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.
