Installation instructions
-------------------------
Download a tarball from http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/releases[] or clone the tig
repository http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/tig.git[]. Documentation files are
available in the tarballs and in the 'release' branch of the tig repository.
The quick and simple way to install tig with documentation is to run:
$ make
$ make install install-doc
Optionally, you can use the `configure` script to detect library location:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
If your iconv library is not in the default library and include path, you'll
probably want to pass the "--with-libiconv" option to the "configure" script to
tell it where to look. Note, if you are building from the tig repository, you
need to first make the configure script:
$ make configure
Release notes documenting notable changes are available in the NEWS file. When
upgrading, you are adviced to also read them after you have completed the
installation.
The following tools and packages are needed:
