This sounds somewhat like the problems detailed for bug #410394, however, I think what you are experiencing is the results of the "very stupid" incremental loading currently implemented in tig. It doesn't use non-blocking I/O and select(), but rather continously reads a few lines of git command output before checking for keyboard input. Obviously, if one of the read are to block just a little, multiple key combinations typed by the user may be recorded leading later to repeated moving. Maybe you can give me more information about in which situations you experience this bug. I don't use tig on very big repositories so this can be the cause for this bug not hitting me very often. Of course, applying a log filter such as '-Spattern', which will cause git command output to only slowly be available makes this very noticable. Anyway, the read fix I believe should be to change tig to use non-blocking I/O. Will add to the TODO file. -- Jonas Fonseca -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
