121 - `BUGS` file has been merged into `README.adoc`.
122 - Default keybindings have been moved to a system-level `tigrc` file, which is
123 installed to ${sysconfdir} by default. The content of the `tigrc` file is
124 included inside the binary as a fall-back. Pass `NO_BUILTIN_TIGRC=y` to not
125 include the system `tigrc` content and reduce the size of the binary.
126 - The example `contrib/tigrc` file (made obsolete by `tigrc`) has been removed.
127 - Source files have been moved to `src` and `include` and `tig.c` was split up.
128 - Build output is less verbose by default; use `make V=1` for old output.
132 - In preparation for key combo support, key mappings for symbolic keys (e.g.
133 `Up` and `Down`) must now start with `<` and end with `>`, e.g. `<Up>` and

135 `^[key`, and control key mappings must now use `<Ctrl-key>` instead of
137 - Only use 'diff-options' for the diff view and introduce '%(cmdlineargs)' to
138 hold non-file and non-revision flags passed on the command line. Affects all
139 user-defined commands that expect '%(diffargs)' to hold both 'diff-options'
140 arguments and those passed on the command line. (GH #228)
141 - Remove built-in keybinding for `git gc`. Add the following line to `~/.tigrc`
142 to restore it: `bind generic G ?git gc`.
143 - To support view specific colors, '.' can no longer be used interchangeably
144 with '-' and '_' in settings names and in particular color names.
145 - Replace 'stage-next' action with prompt command using a predefined search
146 (see below) and add binding (`@` by default) to also work in the diff view.
147 - Most view display options must now be set via the new `*-view` options in
148 tigrc. Existing options are no longer recognized, but a warning is shown.
149 - Remap default bindings to have more consistent convention: use lower-case
150 keys primarily for view switching and non-destructive actions, use upper-case
151 keys for view-specific actions including user-defined commands. To preserve
152 old default key bindings see `contrib/bindings-v1.x.tigrc`. (GH #257)
156 - Add mouse support: scroll view, click line to move cursor, double click line
157 (or click again) to "Enter" cursor line, e.g. open commit diff. Disabled by

161 - Add completion and history support to the prompt via readline. (GH #185)

164 columns. See system tigrc and tigrc(5) for examples. (GH #89, #222)
165 - Add grep view as a front-end to git-grep(1): `tig grep -p strchr`. From
166 within Tig, the key for switching or grepping is bound to 'g' by default.
167 - Rename 'branch' view to 'refs' view and show tags. (GH #134)
168 - Add main view pager mode that reads git-log's '--pretty=raw' data
169 from stdin, e.g. `git reflog --pretty=raw | tig --pretty=raw`.

171 - Add default command bindings: `!` to delete branch, `!` to drop stash.
172 - Add 'stage-split-chunk' action for splitting chunks in the stage view.
173 Bound to '\' by default. (GH #107)

175 to the previous revision and line after moving e.g. to the parent. (GH #124)
176 - Auto-refresh views based on watched repository changes. Configure by setting
177 `refresh-mode` to 'manual', 'auto', 'after-command', or 'periodic'. (GH #190)
178 - All default settings are in well-documented system `tigrc`.
179 - Add `:toggle` prompt command to manipulate options using keybindings. For
180 example: `bind diff D :toggle diff-options --patience --notes`. (GH #69)
181 - Add a new "auto" value for the 'vertical-split' option to let Tig choose the
182 split orientation (this is the new default behavior). Can be toggled.
183 - Make it possible to toggle the display of files in untracked directories.
184 - Allow Tig to be started with no default configuration by specifying an
185 alternative system `tigrc` file, e.g.: `TIGRC_SYSTEM=~/.tigrc.safe tig`. Set
186 `TIGRC_SYSTEM` to the empty string to use built-in configuration instead of
187 - Key mappings can contain UTF-8 multibyte unicode keys.
188 - Warn about conflicting keybindings using Ctrl, e.g. `<Ctrl-f>` and
189 `<Ctrl-F>`. (GH #218)
190 - Extend key bindings for prompt commands (ie. `bind <keymap> <key> :<prompt>`)
191 to support predefined searches, eg.: `bind stage 2 :?^@@`.
192 - Git color mappings can be configured in tigrc.

197 - Support view specific colors: `color stage.diff-add yellow default`.

199 'find-prev' work as expected.

201 `bind main B ?git checkout -b "%(prompt Enter new branch name: )"`.

216 break the output parsing. (GH #191)
217 - Close stdin when pager mode is not supported.
218 - Show newly created branches in the main view. (GH #196)

311 - Fix manual keybinding for stage-single-line. (GH #108)
312 - Values set for author-width and filename-width will result in widths
313 one character bigger than previously.
317 - Typing a text in the prompt will be interpreted as a Tig command.
318 Prefixing the command with a '!' will execute this system command in
319 an external pager. Entering a single key will execute the
