+/**
+ * ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
+ * ---------------------
+ * It is possible to alter which commands are used for the different views.
+ * If for example you prefer commits in the main to be sorted by date and
+ * only show 500 commits, use:
+ *
+ *     $ TIG_MAIN_CMD="git log --date-order -n500 --pretty=raw %s" tig
+ *
+ * Or set the variable permanently in your environment.
+ *
+ * Notice, how `%s` is used to specify the commit reference. There can
+ * be a maximum of 5 `%s` ref specifications.
+ *
+ * TIG_DIFF_CMD::
+ *     The command used for the diff view. By default, git show is used
+ *     as a backend.
+ *
+ * TIG_LOG_CMD::
+ *     The command used for the log view.
+ *
+ * TIG_MAIN_CMD::
+ *     The command used for the main view. Note, you must always specify
+ *     the option: `--pretty=raw` since the main view parser expects to
+ *     read that format.
