Needs theme with no background color

[controversial]

Second this. I use a terminal with a translucent background:

however, git-split-diffs adds an opaque background behind every character on the screen:

It would be great if there were an option to render a theme without any background color on the non-highlighted lines (obviously, the lines highlighted as added or removed need to have a background color)

Makes sense. The reason everything has a background is because I added support for alpha in colors, so that you could say e.g. line deletions are ff000022 which adds a reddish tinge to the background. This is especially useful if you have multiple layers like for highlighting inline changes.

Anyway, will think of a fix. Would you rather have a way to unset background colors in existing themes, or just have a separate theme without backgrounds? I'm guessing the former would be better so you can use any theme

Alternatively, a way to point to a custom .json theme file, so everyone can be happy 😃

Oh yeah that might be better. You can hackishly do that right now by making theme-name a relative path, but there should be a better way

I hacked together a quick fix in #8!
