• Installation

** GNU ELPA

This package is available on [[https://elpa.gnu.org][GNU ELPA]]. You can install it via =M-x package-install RET dired-git-info RET=

** Manual

For manual installation, clone the repository and call:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp (package-install-file "/path/to/dired-git-info.el") #+END_SRC

• Config

** Bind the minor mode command in dired

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp (with-eval-after-load 'dired (define-key dired-mode-map ")" 'dired-git-info-mode)) #+END_SRC

** Don't hide normal Dired file info

By default, toggling =dired-git-info-mode= also toggles the built-in =dired-hide-details-mode=, which hides file details such as ownership, permissions and size. This behaviour can be disabled by overriding =dgi-auto-hide-details-p=:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp (setq dgi-auto-hide-details-p nil) #+END_SRC

** Enable automatically in every Dired buffer (if in Git repository)

To enable =dired-git-info-mode= whenever you navigate to a Git repository, use the following: #+BEGIN_SRC elisp (add-hook 'dired-after-readin-hook 'dired-git-info-auto-enable) #+END_SRC
