I see the same thing on my Mac and it makes it quite difficult to use gitk. However the same version of gitk does not have this problem on Windows. Its clearly related to platform differences. Of course Windows is unable to open a gitk window without it being collapsed down to only the titlebar, and is also unable to sucessfully reread the user's ~/.gitk file, but that's another bug... I really should try to figure out what these problems are, but gitk is 6323 lines of Tcl/Tk code which I'm not all too familiar with, and I've got my own growing mass of ~2473 lines of Tcl/Tk code in git-gui to worry about right now... --
