Hello,

A new release is available fixing a few bugs and improving TTY management.

What is Tig? ------------ Tig is an ncurses-based text-mode interface for git. It functions mainly as a Git repository browser, but can also assist in staging changes for commit at chunk level and act as a pager for output from various Git commands.

Release notes ------------- Improvements:

 - Restore TTY attributes. (GH #725)
 - Handle `\n` like `\r`. (GH #758)

Bug fixes:

 - Add workaround that detects busy loops when Tig loses the TTY. This may
   happen if Tig does not receive the HUP signal (e.g. when started with
   `nohup`). (GH #164)
 - Fix compatibility with ncurses-5.4 which caused copy-pasting to not work
   in the prompt. (GH #767)
 - tig(1): document correct environment variable. (GH #752)
