Custom Colours

[DreepyYunky]

Before I got this plugin, I used VS Code and GitLens. GitLens comes with a similar feature to this plugin, but it's grey, not green.

There's more to it though. Some themes have their comments themed (Including mine, I'm using a theme similar to VS Code default) and this might cause confusion for these people as the blame is similar to the comments. This is demonstrated by a screenshot I took.

HOW CAN THIS BE FIXED?

Well here's my syntax that will allow the user to set the colour of the blame (This code assumes you're using lazy.nvim).

return {
   "f-person/git-blame.nvim",
   opts = {
      colour = "grey" -- Can be renamed to "color", I have no problem with that.
   },
}

Hello, thanks for the suggestion! I think that's a good idea, we will look into implementing this 👍

Hi, @DreepyYunky! Is setting a custom highlight group and customizing its colors sufficient for your use case? https://github.com/f-person/git-blame.nvim?tab=readme-ov-file#highlight-group

Wow I haven't checked on this issue in a while, @f-person I'll try the highlighting groups and see if it'll work.

On the highlighting groups, it is cool, but maybe can still be confused. Custom Colouring will allow users to set distinct colours. I might work on this and open a pull request.
