Foam Settings

• These are my [foam] ([vscode]) settings as of [2021-01-13]:
  • "foam.openDailyNote.directory": "journal" in the workspace's settings.json to create daily notes in journal/, example:
    • https://github.com/flancian/garden/blob/master/.vscode/settings.json
  • "vscodeMarkdownNotes.newNoteDirectory": "WORKSPACE_ROOT" also, to make it so that notes created by following links from the daily note (alt-d) are created in the root instead of the journal/ directory.
  • A commit.txt in the repo for [auto commit messages], plus one-time setup with git config (see note), if you don't want to have to write commit messages when updating the [agora].
  • The following in .config/Code/User/keybindings.json (this has to be set on a global basis due to [vscode] limitations):

[
     {
         "key": "ctrl+shift+b",
         "command": "vscodeMarkdownNotesBacklinks.focus"
     },
     {
         "key": "ctrl+alt+[",
         "command": "workbench.action.navigateBack"
     },
     {
         "key": "ctrl+alt+]",
         "command": "workbench.action.navigateForward"
     },
     {
         "key": "ctrl+shift+a",
         "command": "git.commitAll"
     },
     {
         "key": "ctrl+alt+v",
         "command": "toggleVim"
     },
     {
         "key": "ctrl+shift+s",
         "command": "workbench.action.files.saveFiles"
     }
]

• This results in being able to press ctrl-shift-s to save all files; and ctrl-shift-a to push changes to the [agora] without the need to write a commit message.
