+
+Incompatibilities:
+
+ - Encode everything internally as UTF-8. This can affect performance,
+ but should in general improve handling of character lengths etc.
+ Also, to properly handle UTF-8 environments use ncurses with wide
+ character support.
+
+Improvements:
+
+ - Status view: update the file variable when a line is selected so
+ %(file) works as expected.
+ - Branch view: add entry to browse all branches (uses git-log's --all
+ flag).
+ - Abbreviation of author names can now be configured and toggled.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - Status view: fix usage from sub directories, which was broken by the
+ changes made to support blame view from sub directories.
+ - Fix parsing of boolean show-date values.
+ - Fix relative date.
+
+tig-0.15
+--------
+
+Incompatibilities:
+
+ - Setting the cursor color no longer automatically sets the text to
+ bold. The old 'lazy' behavior was a bug.
+ - Remove check for git-repo-config, which was officially deprecated in
+ git version 1.5.4. The configure script no longer depends on git
+ being installed.
+
+Improvements:
+
+ - Provide the manual as a man page named tigmanual(7).
+ - Add ability to toggle between showing shorter dates (without time
+ info) and relative dates. Use 'D' to toggle between date formats.
+ - Show the active (instead of the default) keybindings in the help
+ view. Furthermore, honor the keymap when suggesting actions in the
+ help messages.
+ - Add branch view for choosing which branch to display in the main
+ view. Bound to 'H' by default.
+ - Tree view: show entry to parent directory ('..') when running from
+ subdirectory.
+ - Tree view: sort entries by name, date or author. Toggling is bound to
+ 'i' by default, with 'I' controlling whether or not to sort in
+ ascending order.
+ - Make height of the lower view in a split view configurable by setting
+ the 'split-view-height' variable to a number or a percentage.
+ Defaults to 2/3 of the total view height.
+ - Allow multiple text attributes for color commands:
+
+ color cursor white blue underline bold
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - Blame view: fix loading of blame data when opened from the tree view
+ and CWD is not the repo root. (Debian bug 540766)
+ - Tree view: fix searching.
