tig-1.1
121fda4

I've release tig version 1.1 with a bunch of improvements and bug fixes. Note that tig no longer uses move/copy detection by default to work better on large repository. See the release notes below on how to restore the old behavior.

Release notes

Incompatibilities:

  • Disable diff move/copy detection by default, boosting diff
    performance on larger projects. Use git config 'diff.renames' option
    (git-wide) to set your preferred behavior. Environment variable
    TIG_DIFF_OPTS can be used to restore the old behavior.
  • Values set for author-width and filename-width will result in widths
    one character bigger than previously.

Improvements:

  • Typing a text in the prompt will be interpreted as a tig command.
    Prefixing the command with a '!' will execute this system command in
    an external pager. Entering a single key will execute the
    corresponding key binding.
  • Basic support for wrapping long line in pager, diff, and stage views.
    Enable using: set wrap-lines = yes. (GH #2)
  • User-defined commands prefixed with a '?' means prompt before
    execution. Example: bind main B !?git rebase -i %(commit).
  • User-defined commands prefixed with a '<' means exit after execution.
    Example: bind main C !<git commit. (GH #66)
  • User-defined commands are executed unquoted to support shell commands.
    Example: bind generic I ! <at> sh -c "echo -n %(commit) | xclip -selection c".
    (GH #65)
  • Configure case-insensitive searches using: set ignore-case = yes.
  • Add "deleted mode" line type for better diff coloring.
  • Open editor when requesting edit action from within a file diff.
  • Update AX_WITH_CURSES to build under Cygwin.
  • Improve tigrc(5) documentation. (Debian #682766)
  • Allow to build on Mac OS 10.7 without the configure script. (GH #25)
  • Add option to split the view vertically instead of horizontally.
    Example: `set vertical-split = yes'. (GH #76)
  • Add 'show-id' and 'id-width' options to configure the display of
    commit IDs in the main view and ID width in the blame view. (GH #77)
  • Allow to override git-based encoding to UTF-8 by setting
    'i18n.commitencoding' or 'gui.encoding'.
  • Improve autobuild support to track generated files and work with
    autoreconf 2.61.
  • Commit IDs are read from stdin when --stdin is given; works for main
    and diff view, e.g. tig --no-walk --stdin < cherry-picks.txt.
  • Add option to disable focusing of the child view when it's opened.
    Disable using: set focus-child = no. (GH #83)
  • Allow to open blob related with added content in a diff. (GH #91)

Bug fixes:

  • Fix commit graph regression when a path spec is specified. (GH #53)
  • Main view: only show staged/unstaged changes for the current branch.
  • Support submodules created with current version of git. (GH #54)
  • Fix diff status message for file diffs with no content changes.
  • Fix parent blaming when tig is launched in subdirectory. (GH #70)
  • Do not show deleted branch when reloading the branch view.
