Tab size is hard coded to 2

[tristan957]

What happened?

I am viewing some C source code that is supposed to be viewed with 4 space tabs, but because hunk is hardcoded to 2, the code looks off.

Steps to reproduce

View a diff that includes tabs that are supposed to be 4 spaces in width.

For anyone experiencing this issue, you can use exapnd(1) to work around it if you are using hunk patch - for instance.

Ah, I don't use tabs, probably explains why I never noticed this. Thanks for reporting.

It would be awesome if we could change the tab size on the fly. For instance, in less(1), you can use the command -x4 to change the tab size to 4.

Done in #588. Will go out in next minor release.
