Thanks.

"Which repository to look at" would be like restarting if you need to lose history information, in which case it would not be so useful at least for me (an extra command line option to limit the range with specifying GIT_DIR environment variable would work equally well). If you can do that without losing history when the new repository to look at is the same as the old one, or similar to the old one, then that would be useful. After starting up, without losing history information, if I can tell it to re-read the refs, because I made some changes to the repository while gitk was not looking, that would be very useful. But I hope your "switching repository" logic would do exactly that when I tell it to switch to the same repository. If there was an option, either runtime configurable or command line, to cause gitk slurp not just refs/heads and refs/tags but everything under refs/* recursively, that would help visualizing the bisect status. bisect creates bunch of commit object names in refs/bisect. If you can pop-up a transient window that shows the tag object comments when I hover over a tag icon for 2 seconds, and remove that transient window when stepping outside, that would be a useful addition. I do not currently see any way to inspect the tag itself, not the commit that is pointed at by the tag. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
