Yeah, tig is awesome and I use it exactly for this use case.
For what I see, magit is way ahead when it comes to the feature set, but tig has the killer feature of having a completely flat learning curve (and I say this as an Emacs user): 1) type tig 2) use arrows to move between commits and page up/down to move within diffs. That's all!
