+## Customizing line breaks
+
+If you want to change how the line break is displayed in the diff, you can also specify `line_break` in your `theme.ron`:
+
+```
+(
+    line_break: Some("¶"),
+)
+```
+
+Note that if you want to turn it off, you should use a blank string:
+
+```
+(
+    line_break: Some(""),
+)
+```
