+### File-type detection and the `file-types` key
+
+Helix determines which language configuration to use with the `file-types` key
+from the above section. `file-types` is a list of strings or tables, for
+example:
+
+```toml
+file-types = ["Makefile", "toml", { suffix = ".git/config" }]
+```
+
+When determining a language configuration to use, Helix searches the file-types
+with the following priorities:
+
+1. Exact match: if the filename of a file is an exact match of a string in a
+ `file-types` list, that language wins. In the example above, `"Makefile"`
+ will match against `Makefile` files.
+2. Extension: if there are no exact matches, any `file-types` string that
+ matches the file extension of a given file wins. In the example above, the
+ `"toml"` matches files like `Cargo.toml` or `languages.toml`.
+3. Suffix: if there are still no matches, any values in `suffix` tables
+ are checked against the full path of the given file. In the example above,
+ the `{ suffix = ".git/config" }` would match against any `config` files
+ in `.git` directories. Note: `/` is used as the directory separator but is
+ replaced at runtime with the appropriate path separator for the operating
+ system, so this rule would match against `.git\config` files on Windows.
