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. + - The use of TIG_{MAIN,DIFF,LOG,TREE,BLOB}_CMD environment variables + has been deprecated. To allow configuration of the diff view, + TIG_DIFF_OPTS can be used. + +Improvements: + + - Plug several memory leaks. + - Command line arguments are split into diff, revision, and file + arguments and made available as %(diff-args), %(rev-args), and + %(file-args). Diff view will limit diffs using %(file-args). + - Status view: update the file variable when a line is selected so + %(file) works as expected. + - Branch view: add %(branch) symbol providing access to the selected + branch. + - Branch view: add entry to browse all branches (uses git-log's --all + flag). + - Abbreviation of author names can now be configured and toggled. + - Mark detached heads with [HEAD]. + - Add support for displaying dates in local time. + +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. + - Fix unbind to behave as if the keybinding was never defined. + - Fix unbind to also cover built-in run requests. + - Fix parsing of unknown keymap names. + - Blame view: fix parent blame to detect renames. It uses "previous" + line info from the blame porcelain output added in git version 1.6.3. + +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
