Ah, I see. There is a status mode for tig (tig -S), but you can't jump to the diff of a particular file. It shouldn't be that difficult to add for somebody familiar with the tig codebase, but I am not such a somebody.

Jonas, am I right that this should be a one-liner? If you can point me in the right direction, I can try to take a closer look, but I'm having trouble following the code.
