Tig Changelog

What's new in Tig 1.0

• Improvements:
• Use git-log(1)s default commit ordering. The old behavior can be restored by adding `set commit-order = topo` to ~/.tigrc.
• Support staging of single lines. Bound to '1' default. (GH #21)
• Use + to open the initial view at an arbitrary line. (GH #20)
• Add show-notes ~/.tigrc option. Notes are displayed by default.
• Support jumping to specific SHAs in the main view.
• Decorate replaced commits.
• Display line numbers in main view.
• Colorize binary diff stats. (GH #17)
• Custom colorization of lines matching a string prefix (GH #16). Example configuration: color "Reported-by:" green default
• Use git's color settings for the main, status and diff views. Put `set read-git-colors = no` in ~/.tigrc to disable.
• Handle editor options with multiple arguments. (GH #12)
• Show filename when running tig blame with copy detection. (GH #19)
• Use 'source ' command to load additional files from ~/.tigrc

• Make display of space changes togglable in the diff and stage view. Bound to 'W' by default.
• Use per-file encoding specified in gitattributes(5) for blobs and unstaged files.
• Obsolete commit-encoding option and pass --encoding=UTF-8 to revision commands.
• Main view: show uncommitted changes as staged/unstaged commits. Can be disabled by putting `set show-changes = no` in ~/.tigrc.
• Add %(prompt) external command variable, which will prompt for the argument value.
• Log information about git commands when the TIG_TRACE environment variable is set. Example: `TIG_TRACE=/tmp/tig.log tig`
• Branch view: Show the title of the last commit.
• Increase the author auto-abbreviation threshold to 10. (GH #49)
