Michael Grant ebb44d4715 image: report damage narrowly instead of flagging the whole pane for redraw
image_redraw_area() used to unconditionally flag the whole pane
(PANE_REDRAW) whenever any part of it needed an image recomposited - a
pane can be much taller than the area actually disturbed (a small scroll
region, or a single line insert/delete far from where an image sits), so
this erased and retransmitted every image anywhere in the pane regardless
of proximity to the affected area. Report damage for just the area via
redraw_damage_window() instead.

image_redraw_scroll() similarly now scopes to the current scroll region
rather than redrawing the whole pane via image_redraw_all().

Welcome to tmux!

tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be created,
accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached from a
screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached.

This release runs on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, macOS and Solaris.

* Dependencies

tmux depends on libevent 2.x, available from:

	https://github.com/libevent/libevent/releases/latest

It also depends on ncurses, available from:

	https://invisible-mirror.net/archives/ncurses/

To build tmux, a C compiler (for example gcc or clang), make, pkg-config and a
suitable yacc (yacc or bison) are needed.

* Installation

To build and install tmux from a release tarball, use:

	$ ./configure && make
	$ sudo make install

tmux can use the utempter library to update utmp(5), if it is installed - run
configure with --enable-utempter to enable this.

To get and build the latest from version control - note that this requires
autoconf, automake and pkg-config:

	$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git
	$ cd tmux
	$ sh autogen.sh
	$ ./configure && make
	$ sudo make install

* Contributing

Bug reports, feature suggestions and especially code contributions are most
welcome. Please send by email to:

	tmux-users@googlegroups.com

Or open a GitHub issue or pull request.

* Documentation

For documentation on using tmux, see the tmux.1 manpage. View it from the
source tree with:

	$ nroff -mdoc tmux.1|less

A small example configuration is in example_tmux.conf.

Other documentation is available in the wiki:

	https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki

Also see the tmux FAQ at:

	https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/FAQ

A bash(1) completion file is at:

	https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/blob/main/completions/tmux

For debugging, run tmux with -v and -vv to generate server and client log files
in the current directory.
