+The tig Manual
+==============
+Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk>
+
+This is the manual for tig, the ncurses-based text-mode interface for git.
+Tig allows you to browse changes in a git repository and can additionally act
+as a pager for output of various git commands. When used as a pager, it will
+display input from stdin and colorize it.
+
+When browsing repositories, tig uses the underlying git commands to present
+the user with various views, such as summarized commit log and showing the
+commit with the log message, diffstat, and the diff.
+
+Calling Conventions
+-------------------
+
+Pager Mode
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If stdin is a pipe, any log or diff options will be ignored and the pager view
+will be opened loading data from stdin. The pager mode can be used for
+colorizing output from various git commands.
+
+Example on how to colorize the output of git-show(1):
+
+ $ git show | tig
+
+Git Command Options
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+All git command options specified on the command line will be passed to the
+given command and all will be shell quoted before they are passed to the
+shell.
+
+NOTE: If you specify options for the main view, you should not use the
+`--pretty` option as this option will be set automatically to the format
+expected by the main view.
+
+Example on how to open the log view and show both author and committer
+information:
+
+ $ tig log --pretty=fuller
+
+See the <<refspec, "Specifying revisions">> section below for an introduction
+to revision options supported by the git commands. For details on specific git
+command options, refer to the man page of the command in question.
+
+Environment Variables
+---------------------
+
+Several options related to the interface with git can be configured via
+environment options.
+
+Repository References
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Commits that are referenced by tags and branch heads will be marked by the
+reference name surrounded by '[' and ']':
+

+
+If you want to filter out certain directories under `.git/refs/`, say `tmp`
+you can do it by setting the following variable:
+
+ $ TIG_LS_REMOTE="git ls-remote . | sed /\/tmp\//d" tig
+
+Or set the variable permanently in your environment.
+
+TIG_LS_REMOTE::
+ Set command for retrieving all repository references. The command
+ should output data in the same format as git-ls-remote(1).
+
+[[history-commands]]
+History Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+It is possible to alter which commands are used for the different views. If
+for example you prefer commits in the main view to be sorted by date and only
+show 500 commits, use:
+
+ $ TIG_MAIN_CMD="git log --date-order -n500 --pretty=raw %s" tig
+
+Or set the variable permanently in your environment.
+
+Notice, how `%s` is used to specify the commit reference. There can be a
+maximum of 5 `%s` ref specifications.
+
+TIG_DIFF_CMD::
+ The command used for the diff view. By default, git show is used
+ as a backend.
+
+TIG_LOG_CMD::
+ The command used for the log view. If you prefer to have both
+ author and committer shown in the log view be sure to pass
+ `--pretty=fuller` to git log.
+
+TIG_MAIN_CMD::
+ The command used for the main view. Note, you must always specify
+ the option: `--pretty=raw` since the main view parser expects to
+ read that format.
+
+The Viewer
+----------
+
+The display consists of a status window on the last line of the screen and one
+or more views. The default is to only show one view at the time but it is
+possible to split both the main and log view to also show the commit diff.
+
+If you are in the log view and press 'Enter' when the current line is a commit
+line, such as:
+
+ commit 4d55caff4cc89335192f3e566004b4ceef572521
+
+You will split the view so that the log view is displayed in the top window
+and the diff view in the bottom window. You can switch between the two views
+by pressing 'Tab'. To maximize the log view again, simply press 'l'.
+
+Current Head and Commit ID
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The viewer keeps track of both what head and commit ID you are currently
+viewing. The commit ID will follow the cursor line and change everytime time
+you highlight a different commit. Whenever you reopen the diff view it will be
+reloaded, if the commit ID changed.
+
+The head ID is used when opening the main and log view to indicate from what
+revision to show history.
+
+Views
+~~~~~
+
+tig(1) presents various 'views' of a repository. Each view is based on output
+from an external command, most often 'git log', 'git diff', or 'git show'.
+
+The main view::
+ Is the default view, and it shows a one line summary of each commit
+ in the chosen list of revisions. The summary includes commit date,
+ author, and the first line of the log message. Additionally, any
+ repository references, such as tags, will be shown.
+
+The log view::
+ Presents a more rich view of the revision log showing the whole log
+ message and the diffstat.
+
+The diff view::
+ Shows either the diff of the current working tree, that is, what
+ has changed since the last commit, or the commit diff complete
+ with log message, diffstat and diff.
+
+The pager view::
+ Is used for displaying both input from stdin and output from git
+ commands entered in the internal prompt.
+
+The help view::
+ Displays the information from the tig(1) man page. For the help view
+ to work you need to have the tig(1) man page installed.
+
+Title Windows
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Each view has a title window which shows the name of the view, current commit
+ID if available, and where the view is positioned:
+
+ [main] c622eefaa485995320bc743431bae0d497b1d875 - commit 1 of 61 (1%)
+
+By default, the title of the current view is highlighted using bold font. For
+long loading views (taking over 3 seconds) the time since loading started will
+be appended:
+
+ [main] 77d9e40fbcea3238015aea403e06f61542df9a31 - commit 1 of 779 (0%) 5s
+
+Keys
+----
+Below the default key bindings are shown.
+
+View Switching
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+m::
+ Switch to main view.
+d::
+ Switch to diff view.
+l::
+ Switch to log view.
+p::
+ Switch to pager view.
+h::
+ Show man page.
+
+View Manipulation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+q::
+ Close view, if multiple views are open it will jump back to the
+ previous view in the view stack. If it is the last open view it
+ will quit. Use 'Q' to quit all views at once.
+Enter::
+ This key is "context sensitive" depending on what view you are
+ currently in. When in log view on a commit line or in the main
+ view, split the view and show the commit diff. In the diff view
+ pressing Enter will simply scroll the view one line down.
+Tab::
+ Switch to next view.
+Up::
+ This key is "context sensitive" and will move the cursor one
+ line up. However, uf you opened a diff view from the main view
+ (split- or full-screen) it will change the cursor to point to
+ the previous commit in the main view and update the diff view
+ to display it.
+Down::
+ Similar to 'Up' but will move down.
+
+Cursor Navigation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+j::
+ Move cursor one line up.
+k::
+ Move cursor one line down.
+PgUp::
+b::
+-::
+ Move cursor one page up.
+PgDown::
+Space::
+ Move cursor one page down.
+Home::
+ Jump to first line.
+End::
+ Jump to last line.
+
+Scrolling
+~~~~~~~~~
+Insert::
+ Scroll view one line up.
+Delete::
+ Scroll view one line down.
+w::
+ Scroll view one page up.
+s::
+ Scroll view one page down.
+
+Misc
+~~~~
+Q::
+ Quit.
+r::
+ Redraw screen.
+z::
+ Stop all background loading. This can be useful if you use
+ tig(1) in a repository with a long history without limiting
+ the revision log.
+v::
+ Show version.
+n::
+ Toggle line numbers on/off.
+':'::
+ Open prompt. This allows you to specify what git command
+ to run. Example:
+
+ :log -p
+
+[[refspec]]
+Revision Specification
+----------------------
+
+This section describes various ways to specify what revisions to display or
+otherwise limit the view to. tig(1) does not itself parse the described
+revision options so refer to the relevant git man pages for futher
+information. Relevant man pages besides git-log(1) are git-diff(1) and
+git-rev-list(1).
+
+You can tune the interaction with git by making use of the options explained
+in this section. For example, by configuring the environment variables
+described in the <<history-commands, "History commands">> section.
+
+Limit by Path Name
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you are interested only in those revisions that made changes to a specific
+file (or even several files) list the files like this:
+
+ $ tig log Makefile README
+
+To avoid ambiguity with repository references such as tag name, be sure to
+separate file names from other git options using "\--". So if you have a file
+named 'master' it will clash with the reference named 'master', and thus you
+will have to use:
+
+ $ tig log -- master
+
+NOTE: For the main view, avoiding ambiguity will in some cases require you to
+specify two "\--" options. The first will make tig(1) stop option processing
+and the latter will be passed to git log.
+
+Limit by Date or Number
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To speed up interaction with git, you can limit the amount of commits to show
+both for the log and main view. Either limit by date using e.g.
+`--since=1.month` or limit by the number of commits using `-n400`.
+
+If you are only interested in changed that happened between two dates you can
+use:
+
+ $ tig -- --after="May 5th" --before="2006-05-16 15:44"
+
+NOTE: If you want to avoid having to quote dates containing spaces you can use
+"." instead, e.g. `--after=May.5th`.
+
+Limiting by Commit Ranges
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Alternatively, commits can be limited to a specific range, such as "all
+commits between 'tag-1.0' and 'tag-2.0'". For example:
+
+ $ tig log tag-1.0..tag-2.0
+
+This way of commit limiting makes it trivial to only browse the commits which
+haven't been pushed to a remote branch. Assuming 'origin' is your upstream
+remote branch, using:
+
+ $ tig log origin..HEAD
+
+will list what will be pushed to the remote branch. Optionally, the ending
+'HEAD' can be left out since it is implied.
+
+Limiting by Reachability
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Git interprets the range specifier "tag-1.0..tag-2.0" as "all commits
+reachable from 'tag-2.0' but not from 'tag-1.0'". Where reachability refers
+to what commits are ancestors (or part of the history) of the branch or tagged
+revision in question.
+
+If you prefer to specify which commit to preview in this way use the
+following:
+
+ $ tig log tag-2.0 ^tag-1.0
+
+You can think of '^' as a negation operator. Using this alternate syntax, it
+is possible to further prune commits by specifying multiple branch cut offs.
+
+Combining Revisions Specification
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Revisions options can to some degree be combined, which makes it possible to
+say "show at most 20 commits from within the last month that changed files
+under the Documentation/ directory."
+
+ $ tig -- --since=1.month -n20 -- Documentation/
+
+Examining All Repository References
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In some cases, it can be useful to query changes across all references in a
+repository. An example is to ask "did any line of development in this
+repository change a particular file within the last week". This can be
+accomplished using:
+
+ $ tig -- --all --since=1.week -- Makefile

- * to show both for the log and main view. Either limit by date using
- * e.g. `--since=1.month` or limit by the number of commits using `-n400`.
- *
- * If you are only interested in changed that happened between two dates
- * you can use:
- *
- * $ tig -- --after="May 5th" --before="2006-05-16 15:44"
- *
- * NOTE: If you want to avoid having to quote dates containing spaces you
- * can use "." instead, e.g. `--after=May.5th`.
- *
- * Limiting by commit ranges
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Alternatively, commits can be limited to a specific range, such as
- * "all commits between 'tag-1.0' and 'tag-2.0'". For example:
- *
- * $ tig log tag-1.0..tag-2.0
- *
- * This way of commit limiting makes it trivial to only browse the commits
- * which haven't been pushed to a remote branch. Assuming 'origin' is your
- * upstream remote branch, using:
- *
- * $ tig log origin..HEAD
- *
- * will list what will be pushed to the remote branch. Optionally, the ending
- * 'HEAD' can be left out since it is implied.
- *
- * Limiting by reachability
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Git interprets the range specifier "tag-1.0..tag-2.0" as
- * "all commits reachable from 'tag-2.0' but not from 'tag-1.0'".
- * Where reachability refers to what commits are ancestors (or part of the
- * history) of the branch or tagged revision in question.
- *
- * If you prefer to specify which commit to preview in this way use the
- * following:
- *
- * $ tig log tag-2.0 ^tag-1.0
- *
- * You can think of '^' as a negation operator. Using this alternate syntax,
- * it is possible to further prune commits by specifying multiple branch
- * cut offs.
- *
- * Combining revisions specification
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Revisions options can to some degree be combined, which makes it possible
- * to say "show at most 20 commits from within the last month that changed
- * files under the Documentation/ directory."
- *
- * $ tig -- --since=1.month -n20 -- Documentation/
- *
- * Examining all repository references
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * In some cases, it can be useful to query changes across all references
- * in a repository. An example is to ask "did any line of development in
- * this repository change a particular file within the last week". This
- * can be accomplished using:
- *
- * $ tig -- --all --since=1.week -- Makefile
