How to override evil-mode normal state binding

Sun Mar 1 21:59:27 CET 2015

Normally you'd do this:

    (evil-define-key 'normal magit-blame-map "q" 'magit-blame-quit)
    (evil-make-overriding-map magit-blame-map 'normal t)

However, magit-blame-map seems to be loaded only after
magit-blame-mode is activated. You can try to resolve this by writing
a hook for magit-blame-mode, or perhaps activating it and deactivating
it before defining the new mapping.
