Quick little theme API adjustment Hey! ICYMI [we released support for themes](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/tag/v0.96.0) a few hours ago. Before they get too widely adopted, we’re making one small breaking API change to the names of keys.: insertbg -> insertcode_bg deletebg -> deletecode_bg This is what it looks like in code: ``jsonc { // ... "diffinsertfg": "#629657", "diffinsertcode_bg": "#2d3431", "diffinsertgutter_bg": "#282d2c", "diffdeletefg": "#a45c59", "diffdeletecode_bg": "#33272d", "diffdeletegutter_bg": "#2a232a", // ... } ` See ya!
