Yeah I (un)fortunately learned about delta too late or I probably wouldn't have made this. The main difference is that delta's default styles and appearance did not appeal to me. I'm sure it can be customized, but I wanted something that looked great by default. I especially like that the syntax highlighting matches vscode's since that's the editor I use for work.

I agree that's important! Delta's screenshot colors are so ugly that yours looks like the far superior product. It also seems more focused on diffs. I feel like I could drop in your project instantly, while delta seems to expect configuration.

> syntax highlighting matches vscode

An that's cool. I've always had a dream of having the same syntax highlighting set up everywhere: vscode, bat, vim, git diff... etc.

I would much rather use this, a nice secluded statically compiled blob instead of letting node.js unspool a spaghetti of dependencies.

It’s definitely nice that delta doesn’t have a run-time dependency on node.

I use Delta and enjoy it, but using it with Git is a bit frustrating.

I wish it was able to automatically switch from side-by-side to vertical diffs depending on my terminal widt, or at least override it with --side-by-side.

Yes this is the default behavior for git-split-diffs: https://github.com/banga/git-split-diffs#narrow-terminals

Yes! This is my number one thing as well. Let me dig up the tickets...
