I saw the patch, but I didn't really look at it (I don't use gitk very
often, and I am an old-fashioned "darker ink on lighter sheet" user so I
wouldn't be a good judge on your change).

I don't take patches to gitk or git-gui directly to my tree.  Please Cc:
the maintainer of that part of the system (Paulus, whom I am Cc'ing this
message) the next time.

Thanks.
