Adhere to the XDG base directory specification

[piegamesde]

LGTM, even if I can't speak for MAC users (in theory the XDG specification is not limited to Linux, but ¯_(ツ)_/¯ ). You could partly follow the specification on MAC by using $XDG_CACHE_HOME if set, but defaulting to $HOME/Library/Caches instead of $HOME/.cache if not.

That is a very good point. I was wondering what is the "standard" here! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

@piegamesde does that adhere to convention on linux?

this will log to:

• $HOME/Library/Caches/gitui/gitui.log (mac)
• $XDG_CACHE_HOME/gitui/gitui.log (linux using XDG)
• $HOME/.cache/gitui/gitui.log (linux otherwise)
