Settings

Open the settings with Tratto › Settings…, ⌘, on macOS or Ctrl+, on Linux. A change you make there applies at once.

The panels

Panel	What it covers
General	language, theme, appearance and motion; the history and its columns; branches; sync and notifications; Home; the projects folder and scan depth
Modules	which modules are shown, hidden or off, in which order
Accounts	hosting accounts (not built yet)
Commit	the commit message editor
Diff	the diff view, its limits and options, the changed files list, image compression
IDE	the explorer and the file viewer
Git	the Git executable, behaviour, your name and email, the Git configuration tratto mirrors, commit signing
Integration	terminal and editor, external diff and merge tools, hosts, the copilot's connection, AI tools and usage
Custom Commands	your own commands
Updates	the update check
Advanced	safety, troubleshooting and signing

Settings that no code reads yet are marked Soon next to their name, so you can tell what changes something today. Among them: the Git path, external diff and merge tools, date formats, window restoring and the update channel.

Language and theme

General › Language is English or Română. General › Style is Violet (the default) or Classic, and Appearance is dark (the default), light, or follows the system.

Where the settings live

Every setting is one line in settings.json:

System	Folder
Linux	`~/.config/tratto/` (or `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tratto/`)
macOS	`~/Library/Application Support/tratto/`

TRATTO_CONFIG_DIR points tratto at another folder, for example to try a clean configuration.

tratto reads settings.json when it starts: restart tratto after editing the file by hand. Only style.json and the layout/ folder are watched and applied while it runs: see UI as data and Configuration files.
