<div class="paragraph"><p>The quick and simple way to install Tig is:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ make
$ make install</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>By default, <code>tig</code> is installed in <code>$HOME/bin</code>. To install <code>tig</code> elsewhere set
<code>prefix</code> to the desired path:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ make prefix=/usr/local
$ sudo make install prefix=/usr/local</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Documentation files, such as manpages, are distributed in the release tarballs,
and can be installed using:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ make install-doc</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When installing directly from the Tig repository, <code>make install-doc</code> will assume
that the documentation tool chain is available and build the documentation
locally. In case you do not wish to install the required tools, documentation
can be installed from the <em>release</em> branch using:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ make install-release-doc</code></pre>

<h2 id="_installation_using_code_configure_code">Installation using <code>configure</code></h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Optionally, you can use the <code>configure</code> script to detect dependencies:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If your <code>iconv</code> library is not in the default library and include path, you need
to pass the <code>--with-libiconv</code> option to <code>configure</code> to tell it where to look.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you have installed ncurses with brew, run configure with the following
flags to have it properly detected (note this done out of the box if you
build without <code>configure</code>):</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ ./configure LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/ncurses/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/ncurses/include</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note, if you are building from the Tig repository, you need to generate
<code>configure</code> yourself. First, ensure that <code>autoconf</code> is installed on your system,
and then run the following command:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ make configure</code></pre>
</div></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_installation_using_homebrew">Installation using Homebrew</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>You can use <a href="http://brew.sh">Homebrew</a> to install Tig on OS X:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ brew install tig</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note, for older installations of Tig, Homebrew does not automatically
update the system-wide <code>tigrc</code> file when upgrading Tig and the
<a href="https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/commit/5600463d68620d68c9745acc490af7f8a16a75cb">behavior</a>
was changed in 2015 to install the system-wide <code>tigrc</code> in the
<code>/usr/local/share/tig/examples</code> directory so Tig always uses the
defaults compiled into the binary.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you see warnings when starting Tig after upgrading, e.g.:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>tig warning: Errors while loading /usr/local/etc/tigrc</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>It means you either need to manually update <code>/usr/local/etc/tigrc</code> with
changes from <code>/usr/local/share/tig/examples</code> rename the file if you
never made any changes to it.</p></div>

<h2 id="_installation_on_windows">Installation on Windows</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>To run on Windows, you will need <a href="https://www.cygwin.com/">cygwin</a>.
You must then install the packages <code>git</code>, <code>gcc-core</code>, <code>make</code>, <code>libiconv-devel</code>
and <code>libncurses-devel</code>. Extract the tarball and install by using <code>configure</code>
as explained above.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you want to install from the sources, then you will also need the <code>automake</code>
package (which will also install <code>autoconf</code>). Then run <code>make configure</code> and install
by using <code>configure</code> as explained above.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_build_configuration">Build configuration</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Build settings are read from the file <code>config.make</code> and for certain systems also
from <code>contrib/config.make-$kernel</code>. An example of the latter is Mac OS X, where
<code>contrib/config.make-Darwin</code> provides out-of-the-box configuration for using the
system ncurses library and linking with the iconv library. This makes it easy to
configure the build without having to use the <code>configure</code> script. As a side
note, <code>configure</code> itself generates a <code>config.make</code> file.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Apart from the different standard <code>make</code> build variables (<code>CC</code>, <code>CFLAGS</code>, etc.)
and standard <code>configure</code> variables (<code>prefix</code>, <code>bindir</code>, etc.), build settings
can be one of the following flags:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
<code>NO_SETENV</code>: Define this variable to enable work-around for missing
<code>setenv()</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>NO_MKSTEMPS</code>: Define this variable to enable work-around for missing
<code>mkstemps()</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>NO_WORDEXP</code>: Define this variable to enable work-around for missing
<code>wordexp()</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>NO_BUILTIN_TIGRC</code>: Reduce the size of the binary by not including a
built-in tigrc. The built-in tigrc is used as a fallback when no
<code>tigrc</code> is found in the system configuration directory (e.g. <code>/etc</code>).
</p>
