Thanks for clarifying. I was a little confused when I read your patch series, since on first blush I thought that you were submitting it to be applied in Git's integration branches, and not Tig's.

In either case, the heads-up is appreciated, but I do not think necessary in general. I am not sure about the feelings of others, but I do not think Tig-specific bugs need to be reported on Git's mailing list.

Of course, if there are Git bugs that affect Tig (or any other project), we would be interested in hearing about them.

That's all to say that I think the README there should be updated.
