Add a skeleton mode to tmux (called "control mode") that let's tmux
commands be sent and output received on stdout. This can be used to
integrate with other terminal emulators and should allow some other
things to be made simpler later. More to come so doesn't do much yet and
deliberately not documented.
Instead of passing stdin/stdout/stderr file descriptors over imsg and
handling them in the server, handle them in the client and pass buffers
over imsg. This is much tidier for some upcoming changes and the
performance hit isn't critical.
The tty fd is still passed to the server as before.
This bumps the tmux protocol version so new clients and old servers are
incompatible.
Add a flag to move-window to renumber the windows in a session (closing
any gaps) and add an option to do this automatically each time a window
is killed. From Thomas Adam.
Add a simple form of output rate limiting by counting the number of
certain C0 sequences (linefeeds, backspaces, carriage returns) and if it
exceeds a threshold (current default 50/millisecond), start to redraw
the pane every 100 milliseconds instead of making each change as it
comes. Two configuration options - c0-change-trigger and
c0-change-interval.
This makes tmux much more responsive under very fast output (for example
yes(1) or accidentally cat'ing a large file) but may not be perfect on
all terminals and connections - feedback very welcome, particularly
where this change has a negative rather than positive effect (making it
off by default is a possibility).
After much experimentation based originally on a request Robin Lee
Powell (which ended with a completely different solution), this idea
from discussion with Ailin Nemui.
On xterm 271 and later, put the terminal into SCL 5 and use DECCRA for
scrolling the region in panes (if the large region check isn't
hit). With help from Ailin Nemui.
Use a lock file and flock() to serialize server start, avoids problems
when running a bunch of tmux from cron at the same time. Based on a diff
from Tim Ruehsen.
Support "bracketed paste" mode. This adds a -p flag to paste-buffer - if
this is used and the application has requested bracketed pastes, then
tmux surrounds the pasted text by \033[200~ and \033[201~. Applications
like vim can (apparently) use this to avoid, for example, indenting the
text. From Ailin Nemui.
Add move-pane command (like join-pane but allows the same window). Also
-b flag to join-pane and move-pane to place the pane to the left or
above. From George Nachman.
Provide defined ways to set the various default-path possibilities: ~
for home directory, . for server start directory, - for session start
directory and empty for the pane's working directory (the default). All
can also be used as part of a relative path (eg -/foo). Also provide -c
flags to neww and splitw to override default-path setting.
Based on a diff from sthen. ok sthen
Drop the ability to have a list of keys in the prefix in favour of two
separate options, prefix and prefix2. This simplifies the code and gets
rid the data options type which was only used for this one option.
Also add a -2 flag to send-prefix to send the secondary prefix key,
fixing a cause of minor irritation.
People who want three prefix keys are out of luck :-).
default-path isn't empty, it is used. Otherwise:
1) If tmux neww is run from the command line, the working directory of the
client is used.
2) Otherwise use some platform specific code to retrieve the current working
directory of the process in the active pane.
3) If that fails, the directory where the session was created is used.

OpenBSD bits by me.
Add initial framework for more powerful formatting of command output and
use it for list-{panes,windows,sessions}. This allows more descriptive
replacements (such as #{session_name}) and conditionals.
Later this will be used for status_replace and list-keys and other
places.
