266 <h2>NAME</h2>
267 <div class="sectionbody">
268 <p>tig -
269 text-mode interface for git
270 </p>
271 </div>
272 </div>
273 <h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
274 <div class="sectionbody">
275 <div class="verseblock">
276 <div class="content">tig [options]
277 tig [options] [--] [git options]
278 tig [options] log [git options]
279 tig [options] diff [git options]
280 tig [options] show [git options]
281 tig [options] &lt; [git command output]</div></div>
282 </div>
283 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
284 <div class="sectionbody">
285 <p>Browse changes in a git repository. Additionally, tig(1) can also act
286 as a pager for output of various git commands.</p>
287 <p>When browsing repositories, tig(1) uses the underlying git commands
288 to present the user with various views, such as summarized commit log
289 and showing the commit with the log message, diffstat, and the diff.</p>
290 <p>Using tig(1) as a pager, it will display input from stdin and try
291 to colorize it.</p>
292 </div>

349 <p>
350 End of tig(1) options. Useful when specifying command
351 options for the main view. Example:
352 </p>
353 <div class="literalblock">
354 <div class="content">
355 <pre><tt>$ tig -- --since=1.month</tt></pre>
356 </div></div>
357 </dd>
358 <dt>
359 log
360 </dt>
361 <dd>
362 <p>
363 Open log view using the given git log options.
364 </p>
365 </dd>
366 <dt>
367 diff
368 </dt>
369 <dd>
370 <p>
371 Open diff view using the given git diff options.

386 <p>
387 tig(1) will stop the option parsing when the first
388 command line parameter not starting with "-" is
389 encountered. All options including this one will be
390 passed to git log when loading the main view.
391 This makes it possible to say:
392 </p>
393 <div class="literalblock">
394 <div class="content">
395 <pre><tt>$ tig tag-1.0..HEAD</tt></pre>
396 </div></div>
397 </dd>
398 </dl>
399 </div>

402 <dl>
403 <dt>
404 TIG_LS_REMOTE
405 </dt>
406 <dd>
407 <p>
408 Set command for retrieving all repository references. The command
409 should output data in the same format as git-ls-remote(1).
410 </p>

412 <dt>
413 TIG_DIFF_CMD
414 </dt>
415 <dd>

421 <dt>
422 TIG_LOG_CMD
423 </dt>
424 <dd>
425 <p>

429 </p>
430 </dd>
431 <dt>
432 TIG_MAIN_CMD
433 </dt>
434 <dd>
435 <p>
436 The command used for the main view. Note, you must always specify
437 the option: <tt>--pretty=raw</tt> since the main view parser expects to

444 <dt>

447 <dd>
448 <p>

451 a path.
452 </p>
453 </dd>
454 <dt>
455 TIG_BLOB_CMD
456 </dt>
457 <dd>
