Hello,

A new version of Tig has been release with several improvements and bug fixes.

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
-------------
Upgrade instructions:

 - The `status-untracked-dirs` option was renamed to
   `status-show-untracked-dirs` to match the new `status-show-untracked-files`
   option.

Improvements:

 - Use `diff-options` when preparing the diff in the stage view to make the diff
   state configurable. (GH #545)
 - Add 'status-show-untracked-files' option mirroring Git's
   'status.showUntrackedFiles' to toggle display of untracked files.  in the
   status view. On by default. (GH #562)
 - Update `ax_with_curses.m4` and use `pkg-config` to detect. (GH #546)
 - Add `tig-pick` script for using Tig as a commit picker. (GH #575, #580)
 - Add "smart case" option ('set ignore-case = smart-case') to ignore case when
   the search string is lower-case only. (GH #320, #579)

Bug fixes:

 - Fix author ident cache being keyed by email only. (GH #424, #526, #547)
 - Fix periodic refresh mode to properly detect ref changes. (GH #430, #591)
 - Add workaround for detecting failure to start the diff-highlight process.
 - Show diffs in the stash view when `set mailmap = true`. (GH #556)
 - Fix parsing of git-log revision arguments, such as `--exclude=...` in
   conjunction with `--all`. (GH #555)
 - Fix diff stat parsing for binary copies.
 - Fix crash when resizing terminal while search is in progress. (GH #515, #550)
 - Fix argument filtering to pass more arguments through to Git.
 - Check for termcap support in split tinfo libs. (GH #568, #585)
