I finally got around to this now. It was already reported as issue 3044863; I added a comment to the existing ticket. I still think we need a work-around in git gui (and maybe gitk) until a fixed Tk version is widely available. Yesterday I showed git to a co-worker, and after 20 minutes of randomly playing around with it he ran into the problem (without me pointing him to it). -Stefan -- Stefan Haller Berlin, Germany http://www.haller-berlin.de/
