Hi!

I observed that, since commit
53c089443cd9885fa677becee4bf7ffd56c3c357, tig show <commit> doesn't
seem to work the same way as I had expected it to. The documentation
update doesn't seem to indicate that this was to be expected (or I
didn't understand it properly). Could someone please confirm that
tig show <commit> should actually do something similar to git show <commit> | tig ?

It seems that since that tig commit, "tig show <commit>" shows HEAD
rather than <commit>. OTOH, "tig <commit>" does navigate to <commit>.

The reason is that tig passes %(commit), not %(revargs), to git show for
the "show" subcommand, but the obvious simple patch breaks diff view. I
guess somewhere in the codepath one has to differentiate between those.
cc'ing Mr. Tig...
