+   code in git's bash completion script.
+ - Colors for 256-capable terminals can be specified as colorN.
+ - Entering a number in the prompt will jump to that line number.
+ - Handle core.worktree by setting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE.

+
+Incompatibilities:
+
+ - The screen-resize action has been deprecated. It had no real use for
+   users and was never meant to be exposed.
+ - The "tree-parent" action was renamed to "parent". Warnings will be
+   emitted for transition.
+ - Remove parsing of deprecated option -S and subcommands log and diff.
+ - The "author" color replaces "main-author". Setting the latter will
+   now set the "author" color.
+
+Improvements:
+
+ - Horizontal scrolling. Bound to Left/Right by default.
+ - Read tigrc(5) options from git configuration files using the syntax:
+
+       [tig] show-rev-graph = true
+       [tig "color"] cursor = yellow red bold 
+       [tig "bind"] generic = P parent
+
  - Tree view: avoid flickering when updating.
+ - Tree view: annotate entries with commit information.
  - Tree & blob view: open any blob in an editor.
+ - Stage & main view: restore view position when reloading.
+ - Blame view: load blame for parent commit. For merge commits the parent
+   is queried. Bound to ',' by default via the existing "parent" action.
+ - Abbreviate author names to initials when the width of the author column
+   is below 6 characters.
 
 Bug fixes:
 
  - Tree view: fix memory corruption bug when updating.
+ - Tree view: improve handling of empty trees.
+ - Status view: fix reverting of unmerged files.
  - Fix regression for non-UTF-8 locales corrupting the view data.
+ - Fix regression parsing multiple spaces in ~/.tigrc.
