Please describe the problem you're trying to solve

Most plugins are set up by passing options to the setup function, but the git.yazi plugin themes itself using a global variable.

Would you be willing to contribute this feature?

• Yes, I'll give it a shot

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe have a table inside the options passed to the plugin to set up the theme.

Additional context

No response

[sxyazi]

Using THEME is just a workaround before theme.toml supports custom configurations ("theme.toml supports plugin-specific styles within [plugin]" tracked by sxyazi/yazi#51).

Once theme.toml allows custom configurations like:

[git]
modified = { fg = "blue" }

There will be no need to set them in Lua anymore, and neither users nor plugins will have to change anything, since they are equivalent.

[hankertrix]

Ahh I see. That way of styling sounds great! Flavours can easily theme plugins that way and it seems quite easy to maintain.
