How to customize a light theme diff view

[kristofTman]

Hi there,

is there a way to customize the layout of the diff view?

I am using a light theme and would prefer a matching layout for it.

Thanks for this awesome plugin!

I believe it should just be default neovim highglights, so you can customize them (DiffAdd, DiffChange, DiffDelete, DiffText). Here is what im doing for example to blend the diff highlights with my neovim colorscheme background:

Thanks for the quick response,

I am using catppuccin-latte as my theme, which comes with a pre-set for DiffAdd, DiffChange etc. However, the diff view is not using it.

Running :highlight DiffAdd gives me this for example:

Ooh that comes from mcphub.nvim, maybe they are using different coloring there. I see that tey are doing some manual highlight so probably:
