⚙ Configuration

gitta can be configured in 2 places:

• ~/.gitta - stores emoji and prefix files.
• ~/gitta-nodejs\Config\config.json - settings handled by Conf when you configre with gitta -r. Note that the path is AppData\Roaming\ for Windows.

You can actually add your own emojis and prefixes. All you need to do is add it to the custom sections. These will never be overwritten when using gitta -u.
