2024-11-21 02:22:51 +04:00
You can reload the config file by issuing the < code > :config-reload< / code > command. Alternatively, on Unix operating systems, you can reload it by sending the USR1
signal to the Helix process, such as by using the command < code > pkill -USR1 hx< / code > .< / p >

< p > Finally, you can have a < code > config.toml< / code > local to a project by putting it under a < code > .helix< / code > directory in your repository.
Its settings will be merged with the configuration directory < code > config.toml< / code > and the built-in configuration.< / p >
