Upgraded: lazygit v0.63.1 → v0.64.0

lazygit v0.63.1 → v0.64.0

  • Renamed: git.pagersgit.diffRenderers — v0.64.0 renames the custom-pager config to "diff renderers" and restructures its fields (pagercommand, adds a type field). Your config still uses the old schema at lazygit/.config/lazygit/config.yml:3-6:

    git:
      pagers:
        - colorArg: always
          pager: delta --dark --paging=never

    This isn't just an in-memory shim: lazygit's migration (pkg/config/app_config.go, migratePagersToDiffRenderers) rewrites the config file on disk the first time v0.64.0 runs, before the GUI even initializes. Since this file is stowed to ~/.config/lazygit/config.yml, that rewrite lands directly on the tracked file in this repo, producing an unplanned local diff.

    Suggested edit — update proactively to the new schema so there's no surprise auto-edit:

    git:
      diffRenderers:
        - type: stdinFilter
          colorArg: always
          command: delta --dark --paging=never
