Jesse Duffield 43a9dc48e0 default to not quitting when hitting esc at the top level.
I've been using this config option for years now so I don't think much of it,
but newcomers are going to find it annoying that hitting escape gets you out
of filtering/cherry-picking/patch-building mode, but also quits the app. So
if you want to exit all the modes you're in, you need to take care not to
press the key one too many times or the app will close.

We'll see if anybody gets mad about this change, but I think it's reasonable.
The only downside is that you won't be able to always quit by spamming the escape
key. If you're in a prompt panel, you'll need to hit escape to exit that, and
then 'q' at the top level. Or CTRL+C of course.

## Color Attributes
For color attributes you can choose an array of attributes (with max one color attribute)
The available attributes are:
- default
- black
- red
- green
- yellow
- blue
- magenta
- cyan
- white
- bold
- reverse # useful for high-contrast
- underline
## Light terminal theme
If you have issues with a light terminal theme where you can't read / see the text add these settings
```yaml
gui:
theme:
lightTheme: true
activeBorderColor:
- black
- bold
inactiveBorderColor:
- black
selectedLineBgColor:
- default
```
## Struggling to see selected line
If you struggle to see the selected line I recommend using the reverse attribute on selected lines like so:
```yaml
gui:
theme:
selectedLineBgColor:
- reverse
selectedRangeBgColor:
- reverse
```
The following has also worked for a couple of people:
```yaml
gui:
theme:
activeBorderColor:
- white
- bold
inactiveBorderColor:
- white
selectedLineBgColor:
- reverse
- blue
```
Alternatively you may have bold fonts disabled in your terminal, in which case enabling bold fonts should solve the problem.
If you're still having trouble please raise an issue.

## Keybindings
For all possible keybinding options, check [Custom_Keybindings.md](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/blob/master/docs/keybindings/Custom_Keybindings.md)
### Example Keybindings For Colemak Users
```yaml
keybinding:
universal:
prevItem-alt: 'u'
nextItem-alt: 'e'
prevBlock-alt: 'n'
nextBlock-alt: 'i'
nextMatch: '='
prevMatch: '-'
new: 'k'
edit: 'o'
openFile: 'O'
scrollUpMain-alt1: 'U'
scrollDownMain-alt1: 'E'
scrollUpMain-alt2: '<c-u>'
scrollDownMain-alt2: '<c-e>'
undo: 'l'
redo: '<c-r>'
diffingMenu: 'M'
filteringMenu: '<c-f>'
files:
ignoreFile: 'I'
commits:
moveDownCommit: '<c-e>'
moveUpCommit: '<c-u>'
branches:
viewGitFlowOptions: 'I'
setUpstream: 'U'
```
## Custom pull request URLs
Some git provider setups (e.g. on-premises GitLab) can have distinct URLs for git-related calls and
the web interface/API itself. To work with those, Lazygit needs to know where it needs to create
the pull request. You can do so on your `config.yml` file using the following syntax:
```yaml
services:
"<gitDomain>": "<provider>:<webDomain>"
```
Where:
- `gitDomain` stands for the domain used by git itself (i.e. the one present on clone URLs), e.g. `git.work.com`
- `provider` is one of `github`, `bitbucket` or `gitlab`
- `webDomain` is the URL where your git service exposes a web interface and APIs, e.g. `gitservice.work.com`
## Predefined commit message prefix
In situations where certain naming pattern is used for branches and commits, pattern can be used to populate
commit message with prefix that is parsed from the branch name.
Example:
* Branch name: feature/AB-123
* Commit message: [AB-123] Adding feature
```yaml
git:
commitPrefixes:
my_project: # This is repository folder name
pattern: "^\\w+\\/(\\w+-\\w+).*"
replace: "[$1] "
```
## Custom git log command
You can override the `git log` command that's used to render the log of the selected branch like so:
```
git:
branchLogCmd: "git log --graph --color=always --abbrev-commit --decorate --date=relative --pretty=medium --oneline {{branchName}} --"
```
Result:

## Launching not in a repository behaviour
By default, when launching lazygit from a directory that is not a repository,
you will be prompted to choose if you would like to initialize a repo. You can
override this behaviour in the config with one of the following:
```yaml
# for default prompting behaviour
notARepository: 'prompt'
```
```yaml
# to skip and initialize a new repo
notARepository: 'create'
```
```yaml
# to skip without creating a new repo
notARepository: 'skip'
```
