Description

@Ardelean-Calin

Describe the bug
The Benchmarks section of the README specifies the gitui binary size to be 1.4MB crushing competition. However, the latest gitui release, v0.26.3 has a binary size of 12MB, much closer to lazygit's current(v.0.43.1) 18MB:

ls -lh gitui
-rwxr-xr-x 1 calin users 12M iun  2 16:05 gitui
ls -lg lazygit
-rwxr-xr-x 1 calin users 18M iul 13 13:27 lazygit

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download the latest binary releases of gitui and lazygit from their respective Releases tab.
  2. Extract the archives.
  3. Run ls -lh <binary> for both of them

Expected behavior
The comparison should be updated as it is no longer up-to-date.
