## Settings
- `Forge-enabled`: Enable Forge functionality (show pull requests, issues, etc from e.g. Github)
- `Display-buffer-function`: Choose which side for magit windows to open on.
- `Hide-status-sections`: Hide listed sections from status view.
- `Quick-switch-enabled`: Automatically confirm switch menu after enabling a switch (e.g. --force)
## Monorepo support
When used in a monorepo, you need to make sure that the subdirectory can detect the parent's `.git`.
```json
{
"git.openRepositoryInParentFolders": "always",
}
```
## Vim support (VSCodeVim)
All edamagit keybindings are customizable using VSCode's built-in `keybindings.json`.
Below are bindings providing evil-magit / spacemacs like keybindings.
The negative bindings, e.g. `-magit.discard-at-point` for key `k`,
remove the default edamagit bindings and the collisions with the Vim extension.
[Open your `keybindings.json`][kse] and paste the following JSON snippet.
