< p > Jujutsu favors the dotted style in these instructions, if only because it's
easier to write down in an unconfusing way. If you are confident with TOML
then use whichever suits you in your config. If you mix dotted keys and headings,
< strong > put the dotted keys before the first heading< / strong > .< / p >

< h3 id = "custom-colors-and-styles" > Custom colors and styles< a class = "headerlink" href = "#custom-colors-and-styles" title = "Permanent link" > ¶ < / a > < / h3 >
< p > You can customize the colors used for various elements of the UI. For example:< / p >
< div class = "highlight" > < pre > < span > < / span > < code > < span class = "n" > colors< / span > < span class = "p" > .< / span > < span class = "n" > commit_id< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "s" > " green" < / span >
< / code > < / pre > < / div >
< p > The following colors are available:< / p >
< ul >
< li > black< / li >
< li > red< / li >
< li > green< / li >
< li > yellow< / li >
< li > blue< / li >
< li > magenta< / li >
< li > cyan< / li >
< li > white< / li >
< li > default< / li >
< / ul >
< p > All of them but "default" come in a bright version too, e.g. "bright red". The
"default" color can be used to override a color defined by a parent style
(explained below).< / p >
< p > If you use a string value for a color, as in the example above, it will be used
for the foreground color. You can also set the background color, or make the
text bold or underlined. For that, you need to use a table:< / p >
< div class = "highlight" > < pre > < span > < / span > < code > < span class = "n" > colors< / span > < span class = "p" > .< / span > < span class = "n" > commit_id< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "p" > {< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > fg< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "s" > " green" < / span > < span class = "p" > ,< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > bg< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "s" > " red" < / span > < span class = "p" > ,< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > bold< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > true< / span > < span class = "p" > ,< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > underline< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > true< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "p" > }< / span >
< / code > < / pre > < / div >
< p > The key names are called "labels". The above used < code > commit_id< / code > as label. You can
also create rules combining multiple labels. The rules work a bit like CSS
selectors. For example, if you want to color commit IDs green in general but
make the commit ID of the working-copy commit also be underlined, you can do
this:< / p >
< div class = "highlight" > < pre > < span > < / span > < code > < span class = "n" > colors< / span > < span class = "p" > .< / span > < span class = "n" > commit_id< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "s" > " green" < / span >
< span class = "n" > colors< / span > < span class = "p" > .< / span > < span class = "s" > " working_copy commit_id" < / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "p" > {< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > underline< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "n" > true< / span > < span class = "w" > < / span > < span class = "p" > }< / span >
< / code > < / pre > < / div >
< p > Parts of the style that are not overridden - such as the foreground color in the
example above - are inherited from the parent style.< / p >
< p > Which elements can be colored is not yet documented, but see
the < a href = "https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/blob/main/cli/src/config/colors.toml" > default color configuration< / a >

< p > By default, the merge tool starts with an empty output file. If the tool puts
anything into the output file, and exits with the 0 exit code,
< code > jj< / code > assumes that the conflict is fully resolved. This is appropriate for most
graphical merge tools.< / p >
< p > Some tools (e.g. < code > vimdiff< / code > ) can present a multi-way diff but don't resolve
conflict themselves. When using such tools, < code > jj< / code >
can help you by populating the output file with conflict markers before starting
the merge tool (instead of leaving the output file empty and letting the merge
tool fill it in). To do that, set the
< code > merge-tools.vimdiff.merge-tool-edits-conflict-markers = true< / code > option.< / p >
< p > With this option set, if the output file still contains conflict markers after
the conflict is done, < code > jj< / code > assumes that the conflict was only partially resolved
and parses the conflict markers to get the new state of the conflict. The
conflict is considered fully resolved when there are no conflict markers left.< / p >

< p > By default, when < code > jj< / code > imports a remote-tracking branch from Git, it also
creates a local branch with the same name. In some repositories, this
may be undesirable, e.g.:< / p >
< ul >
< li > There is a remote with a lot of historical branches that you don't
want to be exported to the co-located Git repo.< / li >
< li > There are multiple remotes with conflicting views of that branch,
resulting in an unhelpful conflicted state.< / li >
< / ul >
< p > You can disable this behavior by setting < code > git.auto-local-branch< / code > like
so,< / p >
< div class = "codehilite" > < pre > < span > < / span > < code > git.auto-local-branch = false
< / code > < / pre > < / div >
< p > Note that this setting may make it easier to accidentally delete remote
branches. Since the local branch isn't created, the remote branch will be
deleted if you push the branch with < code > jj git push --branch< / code > or < code > jj git push
