Hello,

I would like to announce the next installment of tig, which mainly
brings a bunch of fixes. However, there was also room for a few new
features, such as support for cherry-picking to the current branch
(bound to 'C' by default), refreshing of the status view (bound to 'R'),
as well as better handling of unmerged entries in the status view by
suggesting users to launch git-mergetool (by default wired to 'M').

For tig-0.10, I hope to finally get time to finish splitting up the
tig.c file into more manageable pieces. It might also be the release
that will try to get handling of different encodings right by using
wchar_t.

What is tig?
------------
Tig is a ncurses-based text-mode interface for git. It can mainly
function as a git repository browser but can also additionally can act
as a pager for output from various git commands.
