Hi,

I am pleased to announce Tig version 2.5.11 which brings some improvements and bugfixes. See the release notes below for a detailed list of changes.

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.
