Shouldn't that be "Listar referencias"? Infinitive is used for other
imperative sentences, like "Releer referencias".

All these should also be infinitive, for consistency, I think. For example, see:

>  +#: gitk:1376
>  +msgid "f\t\tScroll diff view to next file"
>  +msgstr "f\t\tDesplazar la vista de diferencias al archivo siguiente"

Strictly speaking, "comando" is not a good translation of "command"
(see http://rae.es/comando), though it is often used. "Command" should
be translated as "orden", "instrucción". IIRC, IBM standard
translation guideliness recommended translating "command line
interpreter" as "intérprete de órdenes".

Nitpick: Why "id" as femenine? I'd tend to interpret it as
"identificador", not "identificación".

As above.

For consistency that should be "Selector de tipografías de gitk", like
in "Preferencias de gitk". Else, it seems like there's something
called "tipografías gitk".

As above.

Just my opinion, of course...
