I wanted to be able to customize signify in a way that wasn't possible
with the current set of options. This commit adds 2 new options and 2
new highlight groups.
Specifically, we can now
1. differentiate between changes, deletes AND signs that have both
with the `signify_sign_changedelete` option.
2. disable showing the number of deleted lines in the sign column with
the `signify_sign_delete_use_count` option.
3. highlight lines with changes and deletes specifically with the
`SignifySignChangeDelete` highlight group.
4. highlight the first line differently with the
`SignifySignDeleteFirstLine` highlight group.
All of these default to existing settings/highlight groups, so
everything should continue working the way it does now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For those that are curious, I wanted to configure signify to show no
symbols in the sign column, and to just use the highlight groups to give
me all the information I needed. I am able to achieve that now with the
following settings and the Solarized colorscheme:
let g:signify_sign_add = "\<Char-0xa0>\<Char-0xa0>"
let g:signify_sign_change = "\<Char-0xa0>\<Char-0xa0>"
let g:signify_sign_changedelete = "__"
let g:signify_sign_delete = "__"
let g:signify_sign_delete_first_line = "‾‾"
let g:signify_sign_delete_use_count = 0
hi SignifySignDelete term=bold,underline cterm=bold,underline ctermfg=1 ctermbg=12
hi SignifySignDeleteFirstLine ctermfg=1 ctermbg=12
hi SignifySignChangeDelete term=bold,underline cterm=bold,underline ctermfg=1 ctermbg=3
