Use delta (https://github.com/dandavison/delta) when viewing diffs in Magit
This Emacs package provides a minor mode which configures Magit to use delta when displaying diffs.
Use M-x magit-delta-mode
to toggle between using delta, and normal magit behavior.
To activate it automatically:
(add-hook 'magit-mode-hook (lambda () (magit-delta-mode +1)))
Or with use-package
(use-package magit-delta
:hook (magit-mode . magit-delta-mode))
